If you mean the leader board then yes.

OK...what page..I went over it last night and didn't see a new list...BTW...the FOG forum is down (along with a couple of others). The only way I got this is because you answered my post and it came up in another location...

Sorry, it is back up...must of had to re-start or something

Radio has made one challenge and is therefore only moderately slack .

I get it, LOEG and all is keeping us busy so will give it another week before I start pm'ing people, including myself .

cheers

Finished Game

Greetings44(Early Carthaginians) 31/42 vs Phlewis(Lysimachids) 38/35

My spear centre resisted the pikes almost to the end, then gave way spectacularly, but the guys on the flanks had done enough by then, helped by some bizarre results.

I thought the Lybian spears would never break. I kept hammering and hammering and they wouldn't break. Then suddenly they all gave way at once. Unfortunately both my wings had been crushed by then.

A nail biter of a battle.

Just finished a battle with Deeter.

Deeter Graeco-Bactrian 35/33
phlewis Lysimachid 26/35

Deeter refused his center and right flank and attacked with his Iranian lancers on my right. My Xystophoroi were stopped in their tracks by the more numerous Iranians, my elephants came up in support but were quickly dispatched and my supporting thureophoroi failed to break through the Bactrian thureophoroi and were slowly ground away. In the center phalangites raced forward on the double to reach the Bactrian pikes and my left wing made up of a mix of Illyrians, thureophoroi, and Thracian falxmen just about crossed the battle field before meeting the Indians and lights holding that wing. The Xystophoroi held on long enough for the center and left to reach the Bactrian line and were finally overwhelmed just as the Bactrian pike line shattered. A great feast is being held to honor their heroic sacrifice.

Challenges for Grudgebringer, password "grudge"
and Deeter, password "deeter"

Only other challenges left to make is one by Radio, unless I've missed one somewhere.

Fedem Later Spartans 20/43 vs Aristides Mauryan Indians 48/47

Spartans in the open....

Spartans lost his camp and the Indians lost one Field Commander.

Tks

I didnt made my challenges still. Probably tomorrow.

Finished game

Greetings44 (Early Carthaginians) 37/42 vs Grudgebringer (Classical Spartans) 33/32

A close game. A bit of manoeuvring to get to the Spartan perimeter then my left flank gave way whilst the Spartan left flank was enveloped by medium foot and cavalry. An intrepid light horse unit managed to penetrate the perimeter and sack the Spartan camp. A few fortunate last rolls of the dice gave the result to the Carthaginians.
