Div A

Rosedelio (Polish) defeats lunecastle (Aragonese) 47-19

Polish massed archers and lights were able to win the skirmish against the Aragonese lights while mostly avoiding their massed crossbows. Then the Polish infantry were able to use a hill against the Aragonese infantry.

devoncop (Samnite 355BC) defeated mcfcivo (Graeco0Bactrian 250-130BC with Saka 300BC-50AD allies)...63-44

Tournament points

devoncop 60+19 = 79

mcfcivo 44 = 44

The Samnites built up and early lead which the stubborn Graeco Bactrian elephants and phalanxes proceeded to claw back but not quite quickly enough. A very hard won victory.

Well played to my opponent.

Poles (Nijis) defeat (barely) Dailamites (ChrisTownsend), 62-52.

An extremely close battle, as the score shows. The hillmen of Gilan descended from their lush mountain fastnesses to meet the Polish Crusade in the sweltering heat of the Syrian desert. Both sides faced off in defensive positions, until a Polish charge on the right drew the highlanders into the fray. The Polish cavalry eventually prevailed over the Iranian horse, but the Dailamites swept away Polish pavisiers and wagons better suited to resist European cavalry than impact foot. Then the battle swung back and forth, as the Polish knights (or at least those who hadn't gone tearing off to loot the Dailamite baggage train) tried to overwhelm Dailamite foot in defensive positions in the rough, and the Dailamites in turn tried to isolate knights and bring their numerical superiority to prevail. A handful of last stands by surrounded knights allowed the Poles to eek out a very narrow victory.

[rpadilla1988]

rpadilla1988 Byzantine 988-1041 defeats SimonLancaster Turkish 600-1036 AD + Arab (Umayyad) 51-53

The numbers tell it all.. the Byzantine army was able to control the Turkish to an extent at the first half of the battle; gaining here and there but all it took was one over extension, and the fluid mobility of horse archers for some flanks to be found which led to chain routes leaving both armies battered. The Byzantine then took the time to attempt consolidating their lines and isolating enemy units; the Turks circles Byzantine stragglers like sharks. The battle oscillated between dead even and the Turks winning by a point; until quite literally the cav saved the day (one single fragmented Byzantine/nomad horse archer entering the map from the south, where they evaded off screen a couple turns back.)

GG SimonLancaster!
