[Warg1]

Warg1 defeats carpenkm, using the army of Indike, in Gedrosia. 65 - 53

Another one of our bloodbath encounters and finally, after many attempts, came up with the win. Thanks again carpenkm for another epic encounter....I'm sure we will meet again very soon.

[deeter]

1a. deeter attacks SnuggleBunnies, using the army of Syria with Arab alles, in Mesopotamia.

Deeter defeats SnuggleBunnies 41-10.

The enemy deployed in a crescent shape in one corner with it's right anchored on some rough ground. The battle was decided with the Syrians victorious on both flanks while the pikes of both armies looked on and were mostly unengaged.

[Aetius39]

Aetius (Sogdiane) defeats batesmotel (Baktriane) 41-8

The Sogdiane right go a foothold on a middle hill, while the left held back the other army on their side, eventually routing their cavalry there when they tried to cross. GG!

[SnuggleBunnies]

4. SnuggleBunnies attacks deeter using the army of Babylonia, in Thrake.

SnuggleBunnies defeats deeter 52-19

Concentrated missile fire and large masses of cheap medium foot eventually overwhelmed the flanks of deeter's army. We now circle each other, he taking Mesopotamia, me taking Thrace...

This means the elimination of batesmotel from among those dividing the spoils. Many thanks for participating, Chris, and hope you enjoyed the tournament!

[Aetius39]

Aetius39 attacks carpenkm, using the army of Hyrkania. Attacker satrapy Hyrkania, defender satrapy Parthyaia.

Aetius defeats carpenkm 54-25

A real grind-fest; there was a lot of built-up terrain, which made it hard for either to attack in it. Nevertheless, the Hyrkanians managed to squeeze out a win with only 2 turns remaining. Well-played by my opponent, who almost got the tie.

[carpenkm]

carpenkm supports deeter's attack upon SnuggleBunnies, using the army of Media, in Mesopotamia.

Carpenkm beat SunggleBunnies 46-19

Please note

• Supports of other attackers (B) or defenders (C) are possible, and not only outright attacks of your own (A).

• So now may be the time to discuss and negotiate with other players on the course they're planning, maybe agreeing on joint actions, and so on. Or maybe not...

• Please just read up carefully on the rules (in particular the Attacks and Effects of battle outcome parts) and be aware that players may not always do what they say...

• Attack declarations are posted in this thread.

• Please express attack declarations in the way the following examples show:
  Outright attack (A): rbodleyscott attacks kronenblatt, using the army of Gedrosia and Indian 500 BC - 319 AD allies. Attacker satrapy Babylonia, defender satrapy Mesopotamia.
  Support of attacker (B): Aetius39 supports the attack of rbodleyscott upon Mesopotamia, using the army of Armenia and Georgian 331 BC - 252 AD allies. Supporting satrapy Kappadokia.
  Support of defender (C): Karvon supports the defence of kronenblatt in Mesopotamia, using the army of Aigyptos and Kyrenean Greek 321-276 BC allies. Supporting satrapy Syria.

• Date (midnight CET+1 (Pella) time) above indicates deadline, after which opportunity for you to declare attack is forfeited and the player next in line may declare his attack.

• Once you have declared an attack, please PM the player next in line, who will then be free to declare his attack, up to his deadline, so we all don't need to wait for each player's deadline.

In case any of you have any questions (which I'm sure you have, no problems ), please post them in this thread in order for everyone else to see the question as well as the answer.
