Division B

Nijis (Germanic Horse Tribes 260-492AD) defeats SpeedyCM (Romans 285-378AD) 62 to 48

Brutal bloodletting with a hair's breadth between victory and defeat almost to the end.

DIV A

TGM (Gauls) wins versus MikeC_81 (Romans) 42-66

Down to the wire and then a roman unit rec'd orders to zig instead of zag, and dutifully obeying the order, took it in the keister, leading to a series of routs.

Good game sir!

Div A

MikeC (Romans) def RBS (Rhoxolani) by score of 12-41.


TheGrayMouser (Gallic) def MikeC (Romans) by a score of 42-66.

I punted this game when I went on tilt after a run of bad rolls. Bad luck turned what should have been a cakewalk matchup into a fight. My tilt turned the fight into a debacle. A SHAMEFUL DISPLAY

Probably will cost me the division

Division B (Round 6)

devoncop (German Horse Tribes 260-492AD) defeated ZygfrydDeLowe (Romans 285-378AD) ......17% to 51%

Thanks to my opponent for a well fought contest.

Results recorded to here.

Div A

hidde (Kingdom of Soissons) beat Snugglebunnies (Germanic Foot Tribes) 45-13

With 7 wins from 8 matches so far hidde now has 28 points. Both pantherboy and ianiow can equal that total, but as they were both beaten by hidde in their respective fixtures they cannot overtake him. Well played hidde.

Congratulations hidde!

Division D

IMC (Galatians 280-63BC) v nobbynobbs Skythian 300BC-50AD after 24 turns it ended in the Galatians favour 43%-58%

That will be recorded as a draw as neither side has broken. (stockwellpete)

Well done man. That's a heck of an achievement.

Cheers,

it was a great game. Went the full number of turns....phew.

The terrain, especially, was against both of us. Virtually the whole battlefield was steep hills and rough going. Perfect for a cavalry army and heavy foot army to operate....NOT!!!!

Thanks NobbyNobbs.

Division B

Round 4

devoncop (Carthage) just defeated dkalenda (Rome) 53% to 61% in a contest that swung dramatically throughout.

Thanks for the game.

Division B, Round 7
Nijis (Romans (285-378AD) ) defeats ZygfrydDeLowe (Germanic Horse Tribes 260-492AD). 30 to 57

Another tense one - the Roman infantry were pressing as hard as they could to break the warbands as the Gothic lancers started to overwhelm the Roman horse. Then a few Gothic lancers got distracted pursuing, and the German center gave out only just in time.

Division C

Round 7 Romans (285-378AD) v Germanic Horse Tribes (260-492AD)
MikeMUC v Hendricus 45-3 win for Hendricus.

The Romans got hit fast and hard, their legionairs disappointed, as they stood ready to do their dirty work, when the signal to retreat sounded. Without their cavalry and skirmishers they left the field.

Division C

dkalenda (Palmyran) beat Morbio (Jewish) 52% - 60%
