Division C

Solemnace Egyptian 570BCE-525BCE defeats ggarynorman Seleucid 166-125BC with Jewish allies 163-111 BC 47-6

Egyptian heavy chariots in the centre broke up Pike formations and Romanised Infantry as they tried to charge infliciting heavy losses and breaking up several of them with pressrue from arrows and charges. On the Egyptian left several Selucid pikes supported by a variety of infantry types tried to engage Egyptian Armored hoplites and managed to break at least one unit before they were outmanuevered and driven from the field. On the left Egyptian light cavalry support by bowmen and Egyptian Spearmen were able to outmaneuver Seleucid Cataphracts to break two of them. The combination of these losses on all three front despite localised successes drove the Seleucid army from the field.

Hannibal and Pyrrhus met in Italy to determine who was the greatest military commander of all time (Alexander was on sick leave). The Romans put at disposal one of their most beautiful latifundia for the battle.

After a grueling march, the shock took place. The phalanges showed their superiority over the African spearmen, however experienced. The Samnite allies allowed several flank attacks and controlled the right flank.

Our left flank, however, was cut to pieces by skillful maneuvers. The alpine elephants seem more fierce than their epirots counterparts. The phalanges however had time to turn around to keep this threat in check.

We faced the very elite of the Romans army, supported by a dense bloc of allies, iberians, thracians and some others gangs. The phalanges approached the stream and found the water too cold. The Romans splashed little water on theirs neck to sweep away some javeliners, but did not go any further. So, staring contest. Only one legionary formation dared to cross and was confronted by an angry elephant. There were no other volunteers. Tips from veterans.

Meanwhile, on the left side, our good Samnites engaged the Allied bloc in muddy ground and managed to defeat it, thanks to the elite soldiers. On the right side, our large cavalry formation take its time but take the ground.

All of this was enough to convince the Roman veterans to remain veterans.

Solemnace Egyptian 570BCE-525BCE defeats Rob123 Gallic 100-50BC with Spanish (Iberian) 40-6

Egyptian Archers well placed on a hill devestate the Gallic left flank with hails of arrows breaking up cavalry and leaving the survivors vulernable to the advance of Egyptian Spearmen. Meanwhile Heavy chariots held in place the Gallic centre leaving them unable to support either flank. On the Egyptian Left armoured hoplites advance against the Gallic infantry and their Spanish allies supported by Egyptian cavalry and managed to inflict enough damage to force the Gauls and their Spanish allies from the field.

[Chris Townsend]

Division C

Chris Townsend Spanish (Sentorius) 80 - 70 BC and Rob123 Gallic 100-50BC with Spanish (Iberian) met on flat terrain with just enough rough to give the Spanish (hereafter referred to as Lusitanians) hope. The clash of armies led essantially to a draw on the Lusitanian right, a complete disastr in their centre, and a resounding victory on their left - except the far left, where the mercenary Nementos, son of Caturix and his superior warband (aided by a couple of returning cavalry) demonstrated that he was worthy of song.

In the end, the Lusitanians scored 68 to the Galic 55, but it was a hollow victory as Sentorius will never return to Rome, having lost all of his Roman legions.

Division C

Solemnace Egyptian 570BCE-525BCE defeats SawyerK Samnite 355-272 BC with Gallic 61-39

The two armies faced each other on a flat plain with rough ground inbetween them. The Egyptians initially hoped the Samnites and Gauls would come to them but once it became clear they wouldn't settled on a slow advance across the rough ground while archers and bow chariots cleared the infantry defending the rough. Once across a fierce counterattack drove in the Egyptian right misaligned from the rest of the army by the difficulty of cross the rough ground. While the Egyptian left tried to move into position to respond the situation seemed to be getting worse and worse before the unexpected death of a Gallic general leading a superior warband in what was supposed to be an easy attack on an Egyptian Armored Hoplite formation broke up the cohesion of the entire Allied army's left flank giving the Egyptians time to inflict enough damage to break the Samnite and Gallic armies.
