My final group game ended as follows:
Another close result in Group A
Edmund_Blackadder's Egyptians 27/34 (79%) beat Ulysisgrunt's Carthaginians 38/37 (100%).

Ah I see now. Londo and I should be able to zip through our games now.

Group C result

LordNytram (EAP Cyrus) 20/32 defeats IMC (Kyrenean) 41/39.

Ian started well but there were two key moves where my chariots lost control and charged against the odds. On impact Ian's dice deserted him with units exploding and unsetting all around. Two big holes created at critical moments in the hoplite lines. Sorry Ian.

With all but 3 results in the line ups for 3 out of the 4 quarter finals are now known. As the other QF is the one with me in it, I suggest those players with confirmed quarter final games make a start on them. Remember, it is a simple paired games carrying the same armies through.

Sorry, guys, I didn't realize I was going to be in a quarterfinal. I am leaving for a week away tomorrow; I can and will issue challenges for Jonathan4290, pw oops, and you can accept now or wait until I return. I plan to play all day today, but as it is past noon here already, I don't know how much that will mean.
Again, sorry.
Jim, aka allendeuce.
Two challenges up for Jonathan4290, pw oops.
