Morat (Visigoths/Byzantines) beat Hari72 Hepthalite: 61-37

Sprawling battle where the Hepthalite horse archers shattered and scattered the Byzantine horse on the right, while a mixture of Visigoth horse and foot eventually overcame elephants and horse on the left. The decisive battle was in the centre, where Visigoth and byzantine foot anchored themselves on a low hill and used massed archers and lights to beat off horse archer attacks until the forces on the left could get back and finish off the fight.

Thanks to Hari72 for a long and hard fought battle.

Just to repost this - as it's the only one of my results that's not been captured I think in the scores. This marks my last battle in this division: many thanks for organising this and to my opponents: lots of fun.

Division 2

edb1815 (Byzantine 551-578 w/Germanic Horse Tribes ally) defeated tmac11 (Roman 24 BC-196 AD w/Sarmation ally) 61-36

The battle started with a lot of maneuvering as the Romans marched towards high ground with rough terrain perfect for their Auxilia and bowmen. Seeing this the Byzantines marched obliquely away and towards a hill on the other flank. The battles stated as some Byzantine lights got caught out covering this march. Essentially the armies got turned 90 degrees and faced each other and faced each other across a valley along the short side of the map. Then a cavalry battle was joined on the left flank as the Byzantines refused the right flank and set up on a ridge whilst wearing down the superior Roman HI with missiles. Ultimately the Roman line charged, and everyone got stuck in. The Byzantine cavalry got the upper hand and the numerous light horse made a nuisance of themselves bringing the Romans to the breakpoint.

Well played thanks for the game.

Morat (Burgundians/English) beat cromlechi (French): 61-51

Burgundians set up a defensive line anchored on a village to the left. French struck hard on the left flank - taking losses as they approached from bows and artillery. Determined French attacking (and a seemingly unstoppable keil) threatened disaster, but the Burgundians (with a block of Welsh pikes - who have been the unheralded heroes this season) held up long enough for the forces on the right and in the centre to finish their foes.

Thanks to cromlechi for a great battle. This is my last match this season. Thanks to the organisers and my opponents for some great matches.

Neo-Hittite had a strong center of infantry, so Phenician focused on assaulting its wings of chariots and delayed fights in the center with a few obstructing heavy chariots.The left wing broke under a mix of foot chariots and missiles and Phenician could engage the center in a decisive way.

This is my last game, thanks to the organizers and to the participants for the fun of this tournament.

Division D

DIVM (Armenians + Byzantines) defeat Ironclad (French + Vikings).

Result: 60-43


Good game by Ironclad, it was actually pretty close, and the Armenians were just slightly faster on their right flank attack than the French on their own right flank attack. Could've gone easily his way.

Cheers.
