markleslie Syro-Canaanite 1207-1100 BC with Egyptian 1149-1069 BC allies defeats lydianed Sea Peoples 1208-1176 BC with Libyans 1250-651 BC allies 45-10.

Turn 3 - view from the allied camp.
The endless ranks of the boat people are revealed, eager to engage in peaceful cultural exchange and make use of our bountiful lands as if they were their own. The King of Kings, not at all keen to engage directly mutters yeah nah and orders the left wing to advance with the right trailing in support.



Turn 9 - view from the allied left wing toward the right.
The King of Kings left wing proved mostly successful routing or dominating the shattered remains of the foe, while our Heavy Chariots, either side of the rough, worked their wicked magic upon the vulnerable flanks the heathen phalanx kept exposing.



The right wing, upon finally engaging the enemies main line, proved to be the less brittle and the day was won.

I salute my opponent and note his sage obsevations on the qualities of the Sea Peoples, at least this day, proved correct.

Turn 2 - view from the allied camp, our deployment zone slightly constricted by the mountains to our right.
Loaded up on shooters we advanced to meat the on rushing horde, seemingly eager to exchange slings and arrows.



Turn 8 - the back is broken.
After a few turns exchanging arrows, with building disruptions in the enemies ranks, our centre and right advanced to fix their front while our left flank attempted to drive their right inwards on their own centre.



Back to the steppe for the trousered ruffians to lick their wounds.
Salute!

defeats
snooky51 Sassanid Persian 224-349 AD with Kushan 47% loss

mixed Ancient British and Roman infantry held the hill on their left while warbands occupied the centre with some protection from a small stream. Sassanid and Kushan massed cavalry in the centre and to their left. British skirmishers and artillery weakened the cavalry, having good success against the unarmoured horse archers - A couple of Sassanid horse broke through to the rear but did not have further impact. The Sassanid heavy cavalry locked in the warbands in the centre and finished them off with flank charges. British centre was smashed, but they had eliminated the Sassanid left wing and were winning against the Sassanid right enough to get the victory. GG
