Thanks for the game.

Division A


Aetius (Egyptians) defeats IMC (Assyrians) 63-33


This was not an easy battle for the Egyptians, as the Assyrians had a decent amount of heavy chariots and perched a lot of their archers on a hill. Also having archers, the Egyptians moved up and softened up the Assyrian archers, while their better infantry attacked the hill. At the same time, some infantry and archers kept the heavy chariots at bay with the help of some rough ground. It took a while, but ultimately the hill fell and the Assyrians routed, but not before heavily damaging the Egyptians. GG!

frederic02 (Arab umayad with moorish allies) defeat Hari72 (Byzantines) 41-15

Thanks for the match.

There is about one week left in the tournament. Div A: With the match between tyronec and Aetius complete, CheAhn needs a solid win against Aetius to overtake tyronec for first.
Div B: One match left for the division, but the top rankings are mostly finalized. First: carpenkm, Second: snooky51, Very likely Third: Morat.
Div C: With the extra wins from w2, it's likely he will overtake SimonLancaster for first.
Div D: First: Solemnace, Second: ulysisgrunt, Third: gort7078

Div B

Late reply, sorry all, but;

rpadilla1988 (Roman) defeats grahamed (Arab) 42-11

Battle lines drawn, the far northern flank of the Romans had some tricky spots with the Arab cavalry but disaster was averted.

rpadilla1988(Roman) defeats snooky51 (Bosporan) 46-0

Don't let the numbers fool you; I was lucky with terrain and rolls.. as well, I gambled some predictions on where to put what and that paid off.. was able to counter hard with lights hidden in woods at my right and they swung over to meet the enemy in the open; supported with my cav and infantry.. the main battle to the left was a serious hand fight.. though I had the high ground.

GG to both my opponents!

Division A


Aetius (Carthaginians) defeats random27 (Indians) 40-5


The Carthaginians took a lot of arrows, but managed to rout many of the elephants early, and after that the archers were too weak to stand alone. GG!

Div A

lydianed (Persians) defeated carpenkm (Palmyran) 59-34

This game went to the 22nd round. I thought it a good tactical game with the strengths/disadvantages of each side being on display. Thanks to my opponent for making it a tough slog.

That's my last game of the season - thanks to all of my opponents for great games.

best, lydianed

Division 1


Aetius (Egyptians) defeats random27 (Syro-Canaanites) 54-22


The Egyptians stayed mostly on a hill and part of them defended a chariot/infantry attack while others went after Syrian units at the end of the hill. The Egyptians defending the hill staved off the attack albeit with high losses, while the others beat the Syrians at the end of the hill and then joined back to finish the rout. GG!

Div A
tyronec (Egypt) defeats Aetius39 (Egypt) 63-44.

Div A two results

Triarii Viking (Ireland) 900-1049 + Scots
defeats
snooky51 Rus 960-1053 w/ bulgar (danube)
Score 16-43 - the Rus were unfortunate to become split by rough ground forcing attacks uphill and into woods.

Triarii Viking (Ireland) 900-1049 + Scots
defeats
Hari72 Byzantine 988-1041

Score 18-43 - the Byzantine left with a large number of cavalry became mixed up with a few of the poorer Viking shield walls and though overwhelming them were depleted by pursuits and frustrated from concentrating again by terrain. Meanwhile, and with some luck, the massed Huscarls and all the Viking lights overwhelmed the outnumbered Byzantine foot.

Thanks for all the games.
