Div B

SnuggleBunnies (Roman) defeats Triarii (Jewish) 51-21

The Jewish army, preceded by a swarm of skirmishers, refused its strong left wing and attempted to goad the Romans into attacking their refused wing and get surrounded by an aggressive flank move supported by lancers. The Romans refused to take the bait, refusing their right in turn and enduring the hail of missiles in order to force a head on melee engagement, which armor and higher force quality saw them through.

Division B

SnuggleBunnies (Jewish) defeats Triarii (Roman) 66-24

My plan was to wrap around Triarii's flanks and roll him up from behind. Instead, the battle was largely head-on, with the critical moment being when a combination of zealots, raw pikemen, and xystophoroi broke through a hinge in the Roman line.

Division D

Principesromanes Arabs defeat Hari72 Bretons 47-11

The abundant Breton cavalry never really found a way around the Arab spearwall. Those few units that did were too worn down to manage a concentration of missile fire.

Thanks for the battle and the chance to play with new armies.

Aetius (Babylonians) defeats markleslie (Neo-Hittites) 51-25

markleslie (Babylonians) defeats Aetius (Neo-Hittites) 59-34



Posting the loss just in case mark doesn't post in time.

The Hittites had the short end of the stick in both of these games, where Babylonian arrows helped blunt their attack, and it was all downhill from there.^^ GG!

I'm looking for some feedback for what periods to run in HOML 6.

Thinking of three options:
A. Revert to two periods, Ancients and Medieval.
B. Repeat of Season 5; Ancients, Medieval & Silk Road
C. Three periods again; Ancients, Medieval & Game of Thrones.

I have played a few games of the Game of Thrones mod, both SP and MP, and think it brings in some fun armies. It is not an approved mod (I think because of copyright) but SickeyMcgee has done a great job with both working out the lists and the in figurines.
You can download it from this thread:
https://www.slitherine.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=109327
We would be using Ver 1.5 plus 1.5c with Snugglebunnies updated costings. It is simple enough to download and just copy into the games library, doesn't effect play of the game in any other way as it is just another set of army lists. There is more to do than downloading an approved mod which you can do in game.
Withe HOML we would use only GoT armies against each other, Smickey says some of the armies are a little unbalanced but that is not an such issue with the mirror matches.

I will only run Silk Road or GoT if there looks to be enough demand for them, would want to get three or more divisions.

Thanks for another fun and well organized tournament TC. My vote for next time is Option C. I'd love to use the Game of Thrones Mod in anger and as you say the mismatches will resolve in the mirror match format that wouldnt work for other tournaments.

Thanks again for running this; always an interesting experience.

I'd vote for C; would like to see GoT series.
