Slitherine

We will start the 4th round next weekend. Hello impact foot!

Thanks TDefender for posting the score from our game.

Another Raphia result:

Londo (Seleucids) 65/85 - allendeuce (Ptolemies) 94/92

Londo 10.2
allendeuce 7.7

I'm having some problems with Paraitakene. The game sometimes crashes while I'm doing my turn. I'm playing on a basic laptop, a few years old, that is otherwise rock-solid with FOG. Maybe there's an issue with the number of units? Anyway, I'll keep trying to progress the games.

Paraitakene has 194 BPs but you have played Cannae that has 240. Maybe you have other programs running at the same time in the background.

Lake Trasimene 217 BC
The Romans will get smashed but the head of their column is stronger than the Carthaginian holding force and they can break out and get to the objective markers. The rest of the army will need to resist as long as possible.

Ilipa 206 BC
The Carthaginian centre is a powerful force but if it does not retreat to the base of the hill, it will get sandwiched by the Roman wings whose own centre is protected by its refused position, hence Scipio’s genius. The decisive fight will occur at the base of the hill if the Carthaginians disengage properly.

I think it indeed was other programs in the background that were causing problems with this battle. Almost finished the one with Edmund, which he will win, curse that black-hearted devil!

(Edmund) 85/102 defeats Londo (Eumenids) 93/92
Edmund 10.1
Londo 8.3

A good recovery by Londo from a difficult position - achieved slightly by fragged elephants that wouldn't die but mainly by excellent play. Thanks for the game.
