How many moves in this Scenario ?
We are up to Turn 34

This battle really brings out the weakness of Lance Armed cavalry against Infantry in open terrain
Thanks

Since this is an "Epic Battle", there are no turn limits :shock:

I personally think unlimited turns are not a great idea, as some players will drag things out until the other resigns in disgust - yes, this has happened to me, I got fed up at turn 54 :(

I believe a turn is roughly 15 minutes long in game time, so if a conclusion can't be reached within 48 turns (~12 hours in-game), night should fall and whoever is ahead on points should hold the field, while the other player has to withdraw during the night, just as in the user-generated skirmish games.

RBS, are there any plans to change this? I've stopped posting open-to-anyone Epic Battles in the MP lobbies because even if it only happens once in a while, it leaves a bad memory, thinking I could have spent my playing time actually having a battle. I only post them now (with a password) for people I have played before that I know aren't going to waste my time and theirs.

Some Epic Battles have time limits, but most don't. FWIW, I have won Maranga as the Sassanids:

Not currently.
