Weekly round-up
No changes at the top of Division A this week where pantherboy (Dailami) still leads from Nosy_Rat (Frankish) with pompeytheflatulent's (German) challenge fading in third place. CheAhn (Byzantine) is almost certain to be relegated now after harveylh (Arab North Africa) moved off the bottom of the table with 2 wins. schmolywar's (Arab Conquest) lead at the top of Division B is down to 2 points now as ConstantinIX (Arab Conquest) has posted his fifth win from 5 starts. Macedonczyk (Byzantine) is moving into contention with 3 wins from 3 starts. In Division C Challenge1 (Arab Conquest) is still in a very strong position at the top but 2 wins by both Questar17 (Norman) and sunnyboy (Scots) suggests that they might make inroads in the second half of the season. Nothing to report from Division D but in Division E another win for DanZanzibar (Dailami) has put paid to second-placed Conteshard's (Viking Ireland) challenge for this season. Back in fourth place Stew101 (Arab Conquest) has a 100% record after 4 matches looks most likely to challenge for the top place. in Division F the only outstanding issue is who gets the wooden spoon place. hscic (Lombard) is currently the favourite with no points from 4 matches.

Weekly round-up
A first defeat for harveylh (Thracian) in Division A has opened up things a bit at the top where Nosy_Rat (Cimmerian) is well-placed in third place with 3 straight wins. Division B is still very close and 6 players have chances to take the automatic promotion place. batesmotel (Achaemenid) and Macedonczyk (Assyrian) still have 100% records. Little change in Division C where sarmation (Phokian) still needs 19 points from 6 matches to overtake baldrick52 (Kyrenean) at the top of the table.

NikiforosFokas (Carthaginian) beat devoncop (Etruscan), 42-16%.

Many thanks to devoncop, always a nice guy to play with. This time i was just luckier. Thanks for the game.

Division C

Questar17 - Norman 923-1040 AD beat devoncop - Andalusian 756-1049 AD with Spanish 718-899 AD allies 61:43

Very tough game, devoncop chose excellent tactics to pressure my troops by his skirmishers on all flanks. I was waiting too long to allow my dismounted armoured lancers do their job on melee.

GG, till the next one

Horse archers proved to be an elusive enemy as the Armenians slowly whittled down the Roman ranks.

Thanks for the game, Tratmot.
