rexhurley (slaves) defeats Dortmund (Romans) 45/63 in a game where I had to kill almost every single one of them to win, hooray Spartacus lives again 8=)

Congratulations Ludendorf, well deserved!

Another thing I will be bringing in in Season 3 concerns the reporting of results. At the moment a player winning a match might report it either as 40-15 or as 15-40 and sometimes that does cause me some confusion, particularly when I am asking for information to do with an adjudication. So from next season I shall be asking everyone to report their winning score as 40-15, not 15-40. Be positive chaps, you are trying to hit targets - 40%, then 25% ahead, then 60%.

Div A
klayeckles (saka) beats out RBS (Rhoxolani) 62-52
chaos ruled the swarming field of Cavalry...but the shakey irregular MF saved the day for the Saka army...repulsing and intimidating the noble rhoxolani horsemen.
After a tough thumping in the classical league with horse armies, we both agreed that in order to be a big boy in this era, you might want to bring some bigboy infantry (and wear your bigboy pants while you're at it)

Division B

nyczar (Scots-Irish 50BC-476AD) defeats markwatson360 (Hepthalites 350-476AD) 57% - 31%

Division C
batesmotel v nyczar................no info, PM sent by stockwellpete asking for an update 24/7, match yet to start, challenge issued by nyczar 30/7.

We are midway through. close one.

Division A

SnuggleBunnies (Romans) draws with Cunningcairn (German Horse Tribes) 49 - 49, with the timer running out

Division D

The Dacians take it 16 to 41 against Supervark's Ancient Britons in their final match of the tournie.

Dacian cavalry scatters and distracts the Briton chariot swarms for long enough for Dacian warbands to exploit their numerical superiority over their Brits counterparts. Good game that could have gone the other way had Super's chariots made it back to the fight in time after playing cat-and-mouse with my lancers.

Guilty as charged. This is the first season that the results have to be given in that order. I am in the habit of reporting it as it is reported on the battle screen after the game ends (my army 5%: opponent army 40%) hence reported Ianiow defeats stockwellpete 5 v 40

I will try henceforth to report it your way. But old dogs have trouble with new tricks so don't send me to my kennel if I lapse.

As someone who played five divisions this season, four divisions is a reasonable restriction. I love this game, but I'm absolutely knackered.

Shawkhan's Romans had a draw with Breogan's German Horse Tribes. 52% to his losses of 57%. Just could not catch the last unit.

and a true gluten such as you can always squeeze in a couple tournaments and a campaign or two... if 36 matches ain't enough!
