Not an easy battle for the Sarmatians. Good luck in your next games.

[angusosborne]

Division B

angusosborne (Antigonid) defeats GDod (Seleucid) 44-60

In The Kiwi Classic we deployed narrowly in opposite corners - me planning to seize control of a hill and GDod planning to avoid it. Much marching later we clashed somewhat in the middle. The battle was about whether the Seleucids could break through the middle with superior quality troops are the Antigonids could outflank with superior numbers and eventually while the Antigonid pike phalanxes all broke both Seleucid flanks collapsed. Great game.

[Stones1985]

Division A

Stones1985 (Parthian with Seleucid Allies) beat Karvon by a score of 42 to 12. This was a tough ask for the Libyans facing Light Horse Archers, Pike and Cataphracts with Light Chariots and Medium foot. It turned into two battles one on each flank. A small Parthian left flank force was beaten but a number of those units made a tactical withdrawal/escaped to join the right flank force which had overwhelming numbers on the right against the Libyan left. That proved decisive as the Parthian right wing was victorious with the Libyan right flank too late to join in the fight.

Thanks for the game.

[Solemnace]

Division D

Solemnace Sarmatian 350BCE-25CE defeats Indibil Seleucid 205-167 55-29

Seleucid Heavy Cataphracts initially did well in the centre breaking through the line of Sarmatian lancers in front of them. However the Seleucid Elephants were taken out by Sarmatian Javelinmen and the Seleucid left flank was out manuever by the Sarmatian lancers exposing the Seleucid Pikemen to attacks from the front and rear the Seleucid position collapsed.

[Captainwaltersavage]

Captainwaltersavage Ptolemaic 55-30 BC with Roman

Defeats

frederic02 Pyrrhus 280-275BC

40:11

The armies faced off on opposite sides of a deep stream with some rough ground in the centre and low hills to the left. The Ptolomaic forces managed to guess wrong when it came to face off against the Pyrrhic forces. Some rapid readjustments were required to sneak across the river on the left. Large numbers of cheaper troops won the day as my centre tried to fend off the phalanxes and the masses of mediums managed to flank the Pikes. A rally of some brave medium spears tipped the balance.

[angusosborne]

Division B

angusosborne (Antigonid) defeats frederic02 (Pyrrhic) 46-17

We fought on a narrow battlefield between mountains and and the sea. The Antigonids marched past the mountains and took control of some rough high ground on the Pyrrhic side. Having done that this became a straight up fight between pike phalanxes and ours were better quality

[angusosborne]

Division B

angusosborne (Antigonid) defeats CaptainWalterSavage (Ptolemaic) 62-37

We both had pretty good defensive positions, but agreed to march off them and meet in the middle. Ptolemaics had much the better of the skirmishing, but then I broke through on the right flank, although it wasn't decisive, Then I had one great turn on the left flank where I got the matchups going my way. It was still a hard fight in the middle, but by the end the Ptolemaics had little left but light troops.

[SawyerK]

Division D

Sawyerk leading the Seleucid 166-125 BC army with Jewish ally

defeated

Indibil and his Seleucid 205-167 BC army

by 69-37.

This was a very tough battle, and I was fortunate that his battle line shifted alignment, allowing me to develop some flank attacks. I never want to face four Veteran Pikes again.
