Great game again with superb opponent.

[ulysisgrunt]

I don't know if this above game is a victory, as it was a draw. Control of the battlefield does not constitute victory; it is the point total.
ulysisgrunt sufferd 59 points loss
SirMichael 56.

I (ulysisgrunt) was still attacking exposed units when the game ended.


It is a draw but SirMichael will receive 3 more points.

[Kroche]

Division A

Kroche Ancient British 60BC-80AD w Roman 24BC 14% loss
defeats
ulysisgrunt Roman 313378 with Germanic Horse tribe 41% loss

Right side of map was unavailable due to mountains although there was a valley between slopes offering access to the enemy. British ignored the valley on deployment, but had to rush some infantry there as the Roman and Horse tribes were moving some cavalry down it. Initial fight in main area was between the Roman and Germanic mounted lancers against the British warbands and Roman allied infantry line with chariots in support. Warbands managed to hold against the lancers and their skirmishers helped to thin the lancers. The Roman infantry, having held back to guard their side of the valley followed up a few turns behind the lancers and their auxilia began to melee with the warbands. The British were having success in the melees in the centre and had built a lead by thinning some of the lancers, but the cavalry force sent down the valley smashed through the rushed British defence and were now threatening the right just as their superior heavy foot were arriving and overpowering the British left. Another turn and British would have lost 3 or 4 units so the victory came at a crucial time. GG

Just checking the thread and table and I think there is a missing result.
I think random27 maybe has forgotten to post his thrashing of my Vikings ending the 19th August.

Random27 defeats Lunecastle 47-14

[excubitor]

Division C

excubitor (Byzantine 600-649 AD) - vs - wulf85 (Rus 960-1053 + Vikings)

excubitor won: 73-39

(actual score - not calculated on the 100 scale)

The battlefield on the Russian side was a big valley with woods on both sides and two small paths on the outer sides of the woods. As the Russian army lacked any javelin units, the Byzantines managed to dominate unchallenged in both forests. The Russian army included only 3 heavy cavalry units, while the Byzantines had 3-4 times more. On the other hand, Russian infantry was far more numerous and seemed like an unstopable wall for the Byzantines. The Byzantines realized that a frontal attack was doomed, so they managed to outflank both sides with three cavalry units on each side, while at the same time, they tried to stall/avoid infantry engagement. When the infantry fighting started, the situation seemed hopeless for the Byzantines. Thanks to their luck, some of their units managed to beat their opponents, and 2 of the routed Byzantines managed to rally. As the Byzantine cavalry prevailed against the smaller Russian one, they started attacking isolated Russian infantry units, and in the end achieved a difficult victory, in a battle that 5 turns before seemed to be lost for them!
