First match report from Burton

Post by madaxeman »

Rather than wait until they are all finished, here is a video-driven match report for our first game from Burton 2010

First Burton Game, Fatimids vs Nikephorians

The report also features the first appearance of the soon to be famous Fatimid "Abid Al Shearer" Infantry

I'm not sure if the wonderful video footage adds more life or just proves you don't have one.

Another great report Tim

I must admit, somehow it has an amusement factor far higher than it really should do...

Aaah, you appear to be under the misapprehension that there is any educational content in my reports...

Tim

There is educational content - you get to see what does and does not work in army design (your opponents and yours respectively) and battle plans (everyone elses and Hammy's/yours respectively)... :)

Nope, theres only one team in Black + White for me, and its not the Toon. And I think a "next 4" fixture list of Spurs, Juventus, Man Utd & Juventus again shows out time has already come !

With Dempsey on board you've got tons of colonists on the Fulham band wagon!

Same with Everton

All pompey needs to do is hire a few 'Mericans and watch em blossem.

Perhaps we can pool our resourse ala 'the Glazers' and buy another club...

hi tim,

reading ur 4th match report,

are u sure 4 Xbow can support a BG of 9 bases? I red somewhere that LF in mixed BG with medium or heavy foots count as one base when considering the number of bases they need to have to be supported but for zero bases for counting the support they can give.

anyway ur reports are always great.

take Ryanair and come in montpellier, septimania june 2010.

Yep, you are right - the 4 XB AND a base or two from the two units of 4 Cv lancers were needed to get up to the required 5 bases behind each unit of 9 infantry.
