CheAhn(Abbasids) 40/47 - davouthojo(Zangids) 45/44

I would like to say all skill but thats not the case. A fair sprinkling of good fortune went my way.

Any discussion about imbalance can be settled now. pantherboy lost one (barely), that says it all

This scenario seems to have the sides assigned incorrectly so each player's routers are routing to the opponent's starting edge. The game also comes up with the current players troops on the top of the map rather than the bottom.

You're right Chris.
I've solved the problem but at the moment I'm not able to upload the revised version being away and having some problems in working with Mediafire.
When I'll be back on wednesday I'll immediately do it.

Hi Lysimachos, was this fix ever implemented? I've just accepted my match with dovouthojo and it's still upside down. I'd rather play it the right way round if possible... it's easier on the brain and routing units are less of a problem if they actually run away from the attackers!

<EDIT> Just followed the original link and the new version is there! I've downloaded it and I'll persuade davouthojo to do the same so we can play the fixed version.

Lysimachos: Thanks for fixing this

hidde (Cumans) 24/47 – MesaDon (Georgians) 54/50
hidde (Georgians) 26/50– MesaDon (Cumans) 48/47

Another good scenario. The Georgians might at first glance look too strong but the knights are slow...

gazxtrix(Cumans) 60/47 - batesmotel(Georgians) 21/50
gazxtrix(Georgians) 51/50 - batesmotel(Cumans) 34/47

Another good scenario but I think it is easier for the Georgians if they can keep their forces together. With only average knights, they are potent but definitely brittle.

Group 11

Lysimachos (Georgians) 14/50 – claymore (Cumans) 49/47
Lysimachos (Cumans) – claymore (Georgians) WIN Lysimachos

The first match was decided by the decision of the Cumans to retire themselves on the hilly east side of the map, where they were unable to stand the combined onslought of the Georgians foot & mounted units.
The second saw the resignation of the Georgians, perched on the northern hilly side of the map, after the initial skirmishing ended with substantial losses of their light units.

Thank's to claymore for the games.

Lysimachos (Armenians) 22/50 – deeter (Seljuk Turks) 41/40
Lysimachos (Seljuk Turks) 44/40 – deeter (Armenians) 39/50

Two hard fought games in wich the superior staying power of the Armenian MF units on rough terrain and a lack in manueverability of the Turkish Ghulams, caused by being equipped with lances instead than light spears, finally gave the Armenians the upper hands.

Xiccarph (Cumans) 47/47 – iandavidsmith (Georgians) 9/50
Xiccarph (Georgians) 50/50 – iandavidsmith (Cumans) 46/47

While the first game didn't go Xiccarph's way , the 2nd was a real nail biter
right up to the very end , you can't get closer than that. Thanks for the games.

Cheers

davouthojo (Armenians) 21/50 – morbio (Seljuk Turks) 51/40
davouthojo (Seljuk Turks) 40/40 – morbio (Armenians) 45/50

Two hard fought games that started with wild cavalry charges and stayed as whirling melees for much of the game, with in both games the Armenian foot providing the key force that tipped the balance. Fun.....but hard work mentally!

deeter and claymore are playing their games while petergarnett is waiting to start his with claymore.
No news from Triarius and MesaDon at the moment but i hope that in about one week, more or less, we'll be able to start the Quarter Finals.

Apologies to all I am afraid I've had a short gap from FoG - 6 days from the 26th.
I had PM'd MesaDon earlier but our game is not started.

As we have both been beaten by Pantherboy and Hidde so are playing for the group wooden spoon could I suggest you carry on and we will post our result asap.
