Weekly round-up
In Division A nyczar (Scots-Irish) finished the season with a fifth consecutive victory to secure third place in his first season in the top flight. The automatic relegation place will be decided by the one remaining match to be completed between rexhurley (Palmyran) and shawkhan2 (Sassanids). GDod (Arab, City) has finished second in Division B after defeating batesmotel (German Horse Tribes) in the last match. batesmotel finishes third. We are still none the wiser in Division C where there are still 4 matches to be completed. 5 players can still take the automatic promotion place including the bottom-placed Stimovsky (Rhoxolani) who is now unbeaten in 6 matches.

Unbeaten runs of 3 matches or more
nyczar (Division A) 5 matches and finished
Stimovsky (Division C) 6 matches

Match completion rate (45 matches in total to be played in each division)
Division A - 44 out of 45 matches completed
Division B - 45 out of 45 matches completed

Player of the week
GDod (Division B) who won his last match this week to finish second.

Weekly round-up
No action in Division A this week where there is just 3 matches to be completed now. dkalenda (Sassanids) beat harveylh (Indians) in the top of the table Division B clash to win automatic promotion. The outcome in Division C will be decided by the result of the Hendricus (Visigoths) versus melm (Hepthalites) match although Ulysisgrunt (Indians) still has a mathematical chance of finishing top if he beats cromlechi (Welsh) in his last match and Hendricus is defeated by melm.

Unbeaten runs of 3 matches or more
dkalenda (Division B) 8 matches and finished
melm (Division C) 4 matches

Match completion rate (45 matches in total to be played in each division)

Weekly round-up
klayeckles is the winner of Division A and has finished with 8 wins from 9 matches. Ludendorf looks favourite to finish second at the moment. A seventh straight defeat for former champion of this section Breogan means he needs to win his last 2 matches to overtake paulmcneil and avoid relegation. In Division B there is a very rare three-way tie with ahuyton, markwatson360 and nyczar finishing with identical records in second place.

Unbeaten runs of 3 matches or more
hidde (Division A) 3 matches
klayeckles (Division A) 5 matches and finished
Ludendorf (Division A) 5 matches

Match completion rate (45 matches in total to be played in each divisio)
Division A - 38 out of 45 matches completed
Division B - 43 out of 45 matches completed

Division A is slow and Division B is very good.

But hey Ian, you didn't really need to spot me two legions... but i did appreciate the gesture

Division A

Nijis (Arab City) defeats ianiow (Arab bedouin) 52 to 24. Very unusual map - a large desert wadi - that saw battling each other on steep hillsides and camels slugging it out with horses in a marsh.

Division B

batesmotel (Chinese Jin) beat iandavidsmith (16 Kingdoms) 53% to 65%
