Division B

Maeglyr - Urartrian 780-750 & Cimmerians
defeats
Solemnace - Sumerian/Akkadian 2500-2193

51-14

Congrats to Solemnace who did not choose simplicity in this tournament.
Even though the result is a decisive victory, he made me doubt for most of the game !

Urartrian commandment send a small strike force to the east to flank the main enemy line. A large force of Sumerian Battle Cars, towed by fierce donkeys, block them. The force finally defeat most of them but cannot come back to the main battle.

In the same time, a mix force of spearmen & archers, heavy chariots and cavalry, face a really strong line of sumerian spearman, holding their pointys sticks with both hand. A small group of shieldbearers as a flank, was mainly observing the battle, toes in the fresh river.

Although unarmoured, unprotected, unmounted and unarrowed, the very old Summerian's spearmens were a real threat : they have skill, numbers and 1500 years of practices behind them. They could easily overwhelm the Urartrians positions.

Using the deep stream as a cover and a means of temporarily disorganizing the enemy, the Urartrians applied a mutual support tactic, heavy chariots and cavalry prohibiting certain movements to allow the S&A to empty their quivers and, thus, to balance the result of the inevitable and terrifying charge.

This day, it was enough to repel the Sumerians.

Division B

Maeglyr - Breton 411-579
defeats
Ironclad Germanic Foot Tribes 260-599 & Roman

61-40

We decided to bring as many cavalry as possible. And hold the large hill with our subfoot.
We expected large numbers of warbands, so : hit & run & flank !

The plan go as planned. Good. But one unit of wild, bold, savage, ruthless, freaky noble Germans lancers slipped through the net and do bad guy things. Subfoots weren't ready for this.
They rapidly scattered themselves (and two cavalry units by the way).

Fortunately, the rest of the manoeuvrers allowed us to restore the situation, isolating and flanking the warbands and put them down one by one. The freaky nobles were captured and they will not have a good time back at our camp.

Germans will surely sing epics songs about their great deeds, we won’t.

[Solemnace]

Division B

Solemnace's Sumerian/Akkadian 2500BCE-2193BCE defeats Grandviceroy2018 Hittite 1594-1351 61-40

A match up of old fashioned disipline versus new fangled ideas like chariots and battle armor. While good use of a hill on the Sumerian left allowed the Hittites to destroy the Sumerian right, except a single battle car which broke through and ran down some light foot, and skilled use of chariots did significant damage on the Sumerian right against Sheildbearer and Spearmen formations beofre most of the chariots were destroyed or driven from the field. The Centre and Left infantry of the Hittite forces couldn't overcome superior disipline and training of the Sumerian Spearmen who smashed through them in a grinding contest that would only have one outcome to achieve victory over the Hittite forces.
