Further to a few queries about scoring, I thought it best just to publish the breakdown of scores for Spring. If you believe that there are any discrepancies, let me know. Please bear in mind that due to last minute issues with players joining and disappearing, not everyone fought the same number of battles.

ETC/EFC/EIC - Enemy troop/field/inspired commander killed
Camp - Your camp was looted
TF - Your IC took the field
ICK - Your IC was killed

Well after a most brutal and hard fought battle, resplendant with threats of head pickling and being kept as the court jester! A result was finally achieved when the Abbasid's absoconded!

macsen Early Bulgar 39/41 lost my Byzantine ally troop commander

Tiavals 44/40, don't know abbout his commanders, probably cowering in their tents .

Thanks for the awesome game.

[Tiavals]

I didn't lose any commanders. Started with 1 IC and 1 FC, and ended with both alive. Which means I get the IC points. And therefore the battle was more beneficial to me than you, unless I'm mistaken.

I still curse the mistake I whined so much about.

Good excuse that, bit like sending guys withs knives to a gun fight.

The Great Lord of Chaldia sacrifices a lamb , tosses a coin and puts wet
finger in wind. It decided , even while defending his borders against
2 foes already he send his 5th corp of Chaldaites to the the borders of Arentanoi.
He taunts King Aristides and suggests he removes "head out of bottom" and meet
his forces in glorious battle.

Just a warning - I'm pretty busy until after the weekend so can't guarantee fast turnaround on games or updates to scores etc.

Cheers.

Not quite... Your basic was -25, +10 TF, +5 ETC, net -10. macsen was a straight +12.

[Tiavals]

Ah, you're right. I forgot taking the field was worth so little now.

[keyth]

Still, a 22 point difference isn't so bad

Macsen (Later Bulgarians) 33/41 Defeated Turk1964 42/37

Turk1964 took the field with Inspired commander
Turks Troop commander exploded on the field (Kaboom)

Excellent battle well fought out the Bulgars too good but we shall meet again

[macsen]

macsen the magnificent (hardly likely to be humble when I want to be emperor now am I?!) has vanquished the great Turk1964 and his Arab horde, OK, so he was out nubered by my unwashed Bulgars but I like to use the word "horde" so give me a break.

macsen (Early Bulgars) 33/41 no leaders lost, IC still in hospital.

Turk1964 (Hamdanids) 42/37 one general "exploded" not sure what sort (they all look the same to me) IC present on the field.

Cheers

Summer 1025 Battle Report

The Great Lord of Chaldia (aka IDS) marginally defeats the Hamdanid Tribe in a tight battle of Cavalry Lancers
The main deciding element of the battle was when Chaldia deployed a naked streaking woman who ran across
the battlefield , the Handanid warriors could not help themselves to look and promptly lost their heads , literally.
Unfortunately no generals where watching at the time .... , maybe bring pretty boys next time for them

iandavidsmith (Chaldia) 30/36
defeated
phlewis (Mesopotamia) 40/33

No camps or Generals where lost on either side.
Great game and close right up to the end.
Cheers

Gregorios Ducas (the Unfortunate) Lord of Mesopotamia has ordered the quartermaster executed due to his economizing on equipment by buying rubber lances and suction tip arrows. Dancing girls have been ordered for the troops. Not that they deserve them but so that they may not be distracted in the middle of battle next time.

Well done Ian.

After a titanic struggle, the Arabs prevail (just!) over the Byzantines. Thanks to Chris for the great battle, they don't get any closer!

keyth (Arabs) 39/40
defeated
batesmotel (Byzantines) 39/38

Byzantine camp looted, one Arab FC killed, don't think I got any Byzantine commanders.

We are still awaiting the Summer challenges from Aristides and Tophat.

Cheers.
