Alexhstandish and SgtOgre (Skythian v Seleucid) drew 51:48

A very constricted battlefield, sea on one side and mountains in another corner did not suit the Skythians. Te Seleucids brought mass pike phalanxes. A very tactical battle with the Skythians and Thracians trying to shoot up and flank, and avoid being crushed by numerous pike blocks.

Good game, thanks SgtOgre

Division B

Chris Townsend's Fatamid Egyptians 1074 w/ Crusader allies defeat Swuul's Scot Idles and Highlanders 1050 with Norwegian 1155 allies 41 to 15.

The dry terrain with enclosures indicated that the tartan army came to Egypt for a bit of a romp. The Fatamid's deployed their Abid-al-shira in a central enclosure, with crusader infantry on their left and a mix command of lancers on the open right flank. The Highlanders initially deployed in an enclosure behind their potential start line, so both sides ended up advancing in to relatively open middle ground. The Scottish knights were ably supported by spearmen to contain the lancer threat and the central clash had both sides taking significant losses. The battle was decided by the crusader infantry decisively defeating the Scots right wing.

Good game.

carpenkm beat Morat 60 - 42
The Palmyran legions made short work of their weaker Byzantine cousins whilst the right wing held just long enough. Well played - good battle.

My Ghaznavids defeated Christwonsends Egyptians 57% vs 63%

Very close and could have gone either way at the end, the Nellies manageing to stick around much longer than normal, made the difference!

Stones1985 (Christian Nubian) beat Morat (Byzantine/German Horse Tribes) by a score of 61 to 51. A very close game where the battle fragmented into lots of small separate encounters with the Chritian Nubians just coming out on top in the majority of them.

Thanks for the game.

Division B

Chris Townsend's Fatamid Egyptians 1074 w/ Crusader allies defeat IMC's English 1272 with Welsh allies 62 to 43.

The dry terrain with enclosures indicated that another army from the British Isles came to Egypt for a holiday. The Fatamid's prepared to provide a warm welcome by deploying a smallish Abid-al-shira/archer force in a central enclosure, backed by one Pavisier and a trebuchet, with a left flank protected by light and medium archers on a small difficult hill. That left resources for a decent mixed cavalry force led by knightly orders on the right, and a reserve of mixed Muslim horse behind the centre. The English choose to heavily rely on their Welsh ally's spears and longbows, with knights leading their defensive force on their open left flank, and English spear in their right flank. The Welsh spear successfully cleared the enclosures, with the help of the longbows, but the English right flank made no progress against the difficult hill, and were decimated by the timely deployment of the Egyptian's cavalry reserve. The battle on the open flank was essentially a draw, although the surprise rout of one of the English knights pushed the English rout points over the limit.

Good game, and thanks to the organizers and my opponents for a good tournament.
