Division D
edb1815 - Breton 411-579 AD defeats Supervark - Sassanid Persian 477-590 AD with Hepthalite 350-570 AD allies 40%-12%
Well played by Supervark. Thanks for a fun game. This was a cagey affair that saw alot of maneuvering by the Persian horse to start the battle. Arrows started raining down as the Breton medium foot tried chasing away the horse archers. The Persian infantry stayed in reserve as the archers sought to soften up the Breton forces. There was a hilly area with some rough patches on the Breton right along with a wood. On the left a swampy area provided protection from the cavalry. These areas were the focal points for the Breton deployment with the lancers and noble cavalry trying to keep away from the elephants. Fortunately the elephants ended up being fairly well neutralized for most of the game with one being routed. Some Persian cavalry was pinned by Breton horse and then pounced on by multiple medium foot units. The Persian infantry then came up with an elephant in support. A Breton below ave heavy foot luckily held the elephants charge and the Breton lancers finished off the Persian foot archers to complete the victory. The Breton ability to field numerous medium light spear helped in this battle.
That's it for me in here this season. It was fun playing with my fourth choice army.

Division D
grumpydaddy845 - Arab, Conquest 638-684 AD beat rs2excelsior - Viking, Ireland 900-1049 AD with Scots 851-1051 AD allies 46% - 7%
Straight up affair with the Veteran Muslim Spearmen outclassing the Viking Shieldwall. The Viking army can't afford to put enough of the elite Hurscarl units on the field to even things up.

Re: Classical Antiquity: winners post your results here . . .
Weekly round-up
In Division A a seventh victory for Nosy_Rat has confirmed him in the runners-up position, while in Division B nyczar (Spartan) recovered from his first defeat to end with a win to set a target of 30 points at the top of the table. XLegione (Roman) needs 5 points from his last 2 games to win automatic promotion, but one of those is against Questar17 (Ptolemaic) who can still win the division outright if he wins his last 4 matches convincingly. The automatic relegation place will be decided by the outcome of the GDod (Seleucid) versus ulysisgrunt (Lysimachid) match. GDod just needs a point to avoid the drop. NikiforosFokas (Hannibal in Africa) has won automatic promotion from Division C after winning his last match to finish just 2 points ahead of Swuul (Samnite). phoyle3290 (Hannibal in Italy) has finished third after defeating devoncop (Etruscan). In Division D bomber23 (Hannibal in Africa) secured another win to complete his escape from the bottom of the table. Rob123 (Hannibal in Africa) will be relegated unless ggarynorman (Indo-Greek) fails to get a point from his last match against Bluefin (Syracusan). Division E finished last week and Division F has been completed this week with DanZanzibar (Carthaginian) winning the vital last match against Blagrot (Samnite) to take his third automatic promotion of the season. The defeat for Blagrot means that he is pipped for second place by random27 Ptolemaic).
Unbeaten runs of 3 matches or more
XLegione (Division B) 7 matches
NikiforosFokas (Division C) 9 matches and finished
DanZanzibar (Division F) 8 matches and finished
Match completion rate (45 matches in total to be played in each division)
Division A - 44 out of 45 matches completed
Division B - 36 out of 45 matches completed
Division C - 45 out of 45 matches completed
Division D - 44 out of 45 matches completed
Division E - 45 out of 45 matches completed
Division F - 45 out of 45 matches completed
These are excellent match completion rates, Division B is a little slow.

Re: Late Antiquity: winners post your results here . . .
Weekly round-up
In Division A a very important win for nyczar (Roman) against fellow-struggler XLegione (also Roman) means that XLegione is relegated this season. Two wins for lydianed (Moorish) this week has seen him move safely into mid-table leaving cromlechi (Roman) at the bottom. He will be relegated unless desertedfox (Germanic Foot Tribes) is defeated 4-0 in his last match against lydianed. A defeat for phoyle3290 (Western Huns) this week means that he now must get 7 points from his last 2 matches, against Bluefin (Scots-Irish) and GDod (Byzantine), to deny current leader IMC (Ancient British) automatic promotion. At the bottom Bluefin needs just 1 point from his last 2 matches to relegate Swuul (Germanic Horse Tribes). edb1815 (Breton) has won automatic promotion from Division D after winning his last match convincingly against challenger Supervark (Sassanid) to finish just one point ahead of Garokan (Arab Bedouin). Barrold713(Roman) is relegated after losing to ggarynorman (Palmyran). A flurry of wins for texanotedesco (Arab) could see him finish in third place if he maintains his form in Division E while an eighth defeat for gamercb (Lombard) means that he is relegated. In Division F Stormcrow (Frankish) completed a strong second half of the season showing with his fifth win, extending his unbeaten run to 6 matches, after having started with 3 defeats

Re: Early Middle Ages: winners post your results here . . .
Weekly round-up
Nosy_Rat (Frankish) is the champion of Early Middle Ages where a seventh win in Division A saw him overtake pantherboy (Dailami), who has finished his matches, and move beyond the reach of third-placed pompeytheflatulent (German). In Division B a seventh win for ConstantinIX (Arab Conquest) put him clear at the top again ahead of Macedonczyk (Byzantine), who has a game in hand. The result of their match together will be decisive in the promotion race. Challenge1 (Arab Conquest) has won automatic promotion from Division C after Questar17 (Norman) was defeated by ulysisgrunt (Viking Ireland). The relegation battle in Division D is still very close where a first win for bottom-placed ggarynorman (Byzantine) has pulled him level with baldrick52 (Indian), with Bluefin (French) just two points ahead in eighth place. ggarynorman still has to play both baldrick52 and Bluefin and these matches will decide who is relegated. In Division E Stew101 (Arab Conquest) secured his eighth win of the season to secure a very creditable second place behind DanZanzibar (Dailami). At the bottom a seventh defeat for Stormcrow (Viking) means he must win his last match against ninth-placed Supervark (Rus) to have any chance of avoiding the drop. Nothing to report from Division F where all the main issues have already been decided.

Re: Biblical: winners post your results here . . .
Weekly round-up
Nosy_Rat (Cimmerian) is the new champion of the Biblical section after posting his seventh straight victory in Division A. Snugglebunnies (Hebrew) has finished second with harveylh (Thracian) third. Another win for sunnyboy (Syracusan) in Division B means that he can still take the automatic promotion place from Macedonczyk (Assyrian) if he wins all his remaining matches 4-0, including a crucial match with Macedonczyk. In Division C, rs2excelsior (Carthaginian) could not sustain his late winning run so baldrick52 (Kyrenean) has won automatic promotion to Division B. SpeedyCM (Median) will take second place if he can beat gamercb (Thracian Getae) in his last match.
