[Morat]

Div A

Morat (Franks and Saxons) defeated Stones1985 Arab (Umayyad): 60-53

Battle which swung to and fro and was decided by the finest of margins - Franks had a series of units that were close to collapse when they finally hauled themselves over the line.

Thanks to Stones1985 for (another) excellent game.

[rpadilla1988]

Div B

rpadilla1988 Byzantine 988-1041 defeats Bagatrix1805 Khorasanian W/Dailami allies 42-15

Bagatrix had the option of winning by DQ do to my absence in starting the battle, but was a good man and allowed me the chance to battle. The Byzantine got the upper hand early with their rain of arrows but near the end Bagatrix had found footing on my left.. luckily my troops were able to hold the line. GG!

[rockmanbob123]

Rockmanbob123 (vikings) defeated excubitor (Byzantines) 66 -35

The Vikings, knowing the technologically advanced Byzantines would bring their excellent horse archers and lancers on a mostly open field....set up with a small forest on their left. As the Byzantines advanced, the Viking Infantry retreated into a infantry line with the forest as the anchor of their left.

The Byzantines did not have a lot of light horse scouts so they did not see the Viking heavy horse hiding in the forest......the Viking infantry feinted a panicked retreating, resulting in the Byzantines attacking faster and in force. The valiant Greek horseman were caught in a double envelopment.....despite admirable fighting by their lancers on the Viking left, once the Byzantine left flank was totally broken defeat was inevitable.

Good fight Giannis!

Div B

Game finished as a draw and I was 2 pts ahead on turn 24.

SimonLancaster (Turkish 600 AD) drew with Bagatrix1805 (Khurasanian 821 AD) 54-52.

Thanks for the game.

My other game is also headed the same way probably to turn 24 which is making it slow to complete.

Phew! well that was a close one, lots of casualties on both sides heading straight for a draw, then, almost at the last moment Andalusia sneaked a win, just one too many turks bit the dust!

thanks for a great game

My game against carpenkm is not going to be completed by the deadline. I've just done my turn and the score is a few points in my favour but no result will be possible by the deadline. I am away now so won't be able to do any more turns.
