Hi

Shouldn't this result be in the Classical Antiquity section?

Thanks for noticing this, Richard. It is an incorrect match-up. Maybe it is a typo. I have sent PM. (stockwellpete)

[Cunningcairn]

Div A

Cunningcairn - Egyptian 664-571 BC beat Morbio - Assyrian 681-609 BC by 62% to 39%

A very tough battle for the Egyptians against an Assyrian army of the undead skillfully lead by crypt keeper Morbio who was able to continuously recall his horde from the afterlife. Beware ye all!

[Bluefin]

Division D

Bluefin (Syracuse) defeats General Kostas (Greek) 64-58.

An absolute bloodfest with the battlefield strewn with casualties. The entire battle was tightly fought and could have gone either way. Thanks for the game.

[Triarii]

Div B

Triarii - Kingdom of Soissons 461-486 AD beats IMC - Roman 105-25 BC 60-36

Cagey to start with Romans beckoning Soissons into a small gap - Soissons advanced and then Romans came out in a rush but just a tad too far leaving enough of a gap to let all those cheap Soissons foot overwhelm them in numbers. Thanks IMC - a good game.

[harveylh]

Division A

harveylh - Ptolemaic 166-56 BC defeats Ulysisgrunt - Jewish 167-111 BC, 43-2.

Commiserations to my gallant opponent who did everything right, but there was far from enough rough terrain for the Jewish army to do its normal magic.

[sunnyboy]

Division B

sunnyboy (Byzantine 740-903AD) drew with SpeedyCM (Rus 960-1053 AD & Polish 966-1057 AD allies) 35-54

Fortunate to get away with the draw a number of late rallies saved the Byzantines from certain defeat.

(2-2)

[rbodleyscott]

Division B

rbodleyscott (Franks + Vikings) won vs MorkinTheFree (Romano-British) 63:39

It is certainly true that quantity has a quality all of its own, but on this occasion quality won through. (Just).

[youngr]

Division A

youngr (Syracusan) defeated Morbio (Assyrian) 62-45

Another tough game chasing shooty cavalry and infantry in woods. Well played by Morbio against the odds
