Right Flank: The Xystophoroi hold their ground until the bitter end.

Center: Despite the almost complete route of the Galatians center, the Seleucids loose the battle. They just could not contend with the Galatians deploying heavily to their flanks.

Final: The Galatians win! Galatians 36/50 and the Early Seleucids 53/52.
I hope you all enjoyed the battle report.

Looks to be a great scenario; I have emailed you for the files. Are you working on any others?
Nice AAR, by the way.

Yes - I have several others - I have sent them to Keith to review. Thanks

Great stuff Charles. I was there this morning from 9am until past 10am waiting patiently for the next pic appear, watching the story of the battle unfold. Thanks for the entertainment!

Thanks Charles, a fun and challenging scenario!(played as the Greeks, barely managed a victory)

What are you cooking up next?

Posted: **Wed Dec 16, 2009 12:29 pm**

I have completed similiar scenario's for the following:

Asculum 279 BC
Mount Eryx 277 BC
Lylibaeum 276 BC

All of these are from the Pyrrhic War. The battle reports probably will not be posted until after Christmas vacation though. Thanks

I was just wondering.

In many of the new scenarios players have spotted issues in them such as Elephants with Swords, and Heavy Foot listed as medium foot, etc, etc..

Has anyone you has played my scenario found any problems like this? If so then please post them so I can fix the issues. Thanks

Everything seemed to ok me (played both sides)
I was doing a little searching for more details on this battle and couldnt find too much except this interesting snippet from Hans Debruck (author) where apparently Antiochus Soter wrote after the battle :
"I am ashamed that we are indebted for our salvation to these sixteen animals."

Appears the succesors of Alexander felt they should have faired better vs mere barbarians!
