Division C

Maeglyr's Byzantines defeats Indibil's Crusaders with byzantines allies [ 55 - 28 ]

An infamous Crusader army, misguided by its sacred purpose, supported by rebellious elements of the Empire, seeks to strip Byzantium of its territories. The fight will be tough.

The Byzantines sent the best elements of their mounted archery to create a diversion on the right flank of the crusading army and distract the European knights supported by steppe mercenaries. Some of the knights, suspecting cunning, quickly disengaged, in order to return towards the center of the battlefield. This flank will see interesting chases and a famous mud fight between mounted archers.

On the other side, the mounted elite of the crusade was broken by a reckless movement of encirclement of the Byzantines, emerging in number from a hill. Boldness, always boldness and above all a lot of luck!

Shaken by the flight of their glorious paladins, the crusade infantry constituting the center of the army was swept away. The infamous Eberhard von Oldenburg, at the head of the traitors of the Varangian Guard, was faced to the end, waiting for the return of the European knights.

Unfortunately, these could not return in time to prevent the debacle. They could, however, exert their vengeance on several isolated elements of the Byzantine ost.

Many bodies litter the ground, but the Byzantine Empire has repulsed, for this time, the European invasion.

Thanks for the game, Indibil !

Division B

Solemnace Swiss 1476CE-1477CE defeats rockmanbob123 german (Imperial) 1488-1500 52-25

Swiss Keils faced their German imitators and while the German fought hard and drove off or wiped out many of the supporting Swiss units they could not break the Swiss Keils who destroyed enough of the German army to give a victory to the Swiss.

Division B

Solemnace Swiss 1476CE-1477CE defeats Indibil Venetian 1440-1500 45-16

Both sides initial deployed to defensive positions too good for either side to attack. The Swiss on the other side of a river and the Venetians on top of a high rough hill. After a moment of comtemplation both came down on to the smoother ground in front of the river with many Venetian crossbows trying to use a smaller hill to help them hold their gorund against the Swiss. This worked against the Swiss Halberdiers but failed against the Swiss Keils who crushed most of the Crossbowmen while a battle between Venetian light horse and Swiss light foot ended in the favor of the Swiss. The Venetians outflanked the Swiss mercenary knights on the right but this effort while destructive was slowed by the brave knights who held on as long as they could giving time for the rest of the Swiss army to tear the Veneitians to pieces and a supporting Keils to kill one of the knights to hand victory to the Swiss.

Division B

Chris Townsend's Egyptians 1200 defeat Solemnace's Minoans 1600 44 to 16.

The appropriately dry map had hills on the Egyptian side, rolling forward from the Egyptian left to some enclosures at their base on the Minoan right. The Minoans went maximum heavy chariots, screened by a lot of skirmishers, and flanked by some spearmen. The Egyptians had some Libyans, supported by a few light chariots on the hill on their right, the usual close fighters supported by massed archers and flanked by guards in the centre, and an attack force of impact troops, supported by a couple of chariots and screened by skirmishers on their left. The Egyptians advanced in echelon from the left, and so did the Minoans. Predictably the Minoan heavy chariots made light work of the Egyptian centre, but the Libyans on either flank also undid the opposing spearmen, which, together with massed archers eliminating a few chariots and skirmishers was enough. Good game.

Division A

Stones 1985 (Order of St John) beat Nijis (Sicilian) by a score of 55 to 23.

Nothing seemed to go right for my opponent from the off. His units lost melees they might have won and lost badly those they were down on. His units charged reasonable targets but pursued in the wrong directions putting themselves into jeopardy. That enabled me to build up a big lead which despite a valiant fight back I was able to see through.

Thanks for the game.
