A very close and tough fight where the Byzantine cavalry thrashed the Andalusian horse but the Andalusian spearmen just managed to thrash the Byzantine Skoutatoi by slightly more. Good game.

Div A
carpenkm km (Viking) beat frederic02 (Byzantine)
41-14
well played - tough map with mountains and a stream which helped the vikings.

Captainwaltersavage Portuguese 1200-1319 AD with Berber (Marinid)

defeats

carpenkm Danish 1200-13196 with Baltic Tribes

40:11

The Danish were holed up on a hilly fortress against which the Portuguese foolishly attacked and were driven off in a hail of arrows and crossbows. Their disordered retreat with mounting casualties tempted the Danish into a pursuit and much like the battle of Hastings, their advance to the plain was their downfall. The surviving Portuguese knightys got very lucky and smashed up enough stuff to win the day.

Thanks to carpenkm for making it an interesting battle after I ran away. As he said - he should have stayed on the hill - but that would have been very dull.

Status Check

2 games still left to play, no change since last week

Division D

excubitor (Pyrrhic 274-272) defeats Antivirt (Macedonian 320-261 + Greek 280-228 allies)
57-19

The two armies formed two parallel lines comprised mostly of phalanxes.
Pyrrhic had all their cavalry on their left - facing most of Macedonian cavalry - and had extended their front significantly to their right, with far more medium infantry than the Macedonians. The Macedonians, fearing a Pyrrhic cavalry's domination, moved all their cavalry to their right and managed to dominate the cavalry battle due to their better quality and superiority in numbers (+1 unit). However, Pyrrhic cavalry managed to withstand enemy attacks, giving enough time for the Pyrrhic infantry to beat the Macedonian. The infantry battle, although balanced in the center, went very badly for the Macedonians (mostly due to their bad luck) as they lost 2 heavy infantry units in the first clash. As the Pyrrhic medium infantry easily outflanked the inferior in numbers Macedonian left, they outflanked the Macedonian front, and their rear attacks collapsed the enemy's front.
Despite the difference in the score, the battle was lost by the Macedonians, mostly due to their bad luck in the first phases of the engagement.

Dark Ages Divisional results through September 20th, 2025

Congratulations to tyronec for winning Division A and Chris Townsend for winning Division C. Appears Division B winner is still not clear. THIS IS THE FINAL WEEK, PLEASE FINISH YOUR GAMES. In particular, carpenkm and rpadilla1988 still have several games each.
Please check your results as I have been known to transpose cells in the spreadsheets

Div A

Morat (Franks and Saxons) defeated Stones1985 Arab (Umayyad): 60-53

Battle which swung to and fro and was decided by the finest of margins - Franks had a series of units that were close to collapse when they finally hauled themselves over the line.

Thanks to Stones1985 for (another) excellent game.
