Well played you deserved the victory.
Much better use of the Indians in combination, than I managed.

As the old saying goes 'I never loose. I win, or I learn'.

Andreas had better be on good form, best of luck to you both.
Stew.

2 hard battles where both armys have fragile troops who can rout easily. Mine have more luck in morale test in important places so I win.

Rosedelio vs dim30

Indian (Hindu South) 600-1049 AD vs Arab (Abbasid) 836-873 AD, Tropical Plain

Game has been created

[Rosedelio]

Rosedelio (Indian) defeats dim30 (Arab) 47-16

The Indian elephants managed to hold or smash through the infantry heavy Abbasid force while the archers and lancers dealt with the cavalry on the flanks.

Rosedelio (Arab) defeats dim30 (Indian) 67-41

The Arabs had a good start breaking through the center of the Indian formation. The Indians had a second wind including rallied elephants, but the initial breakthrough still gave the Abbasids enough of an advantage to secure the field.

With this, I retire undefeated. Thanks to everyone for joining the various seasons and to kronenblatt for hosting. Good luck to the next Campio!

[kronenblatt]

With this, I retire undefeated. Thanks to everyone for joining the various seasons and to kronenblatt for hosting. Good luck to the next Campio!

What a show! Very impressive! Many thanks to you too and hope you enjoyed this tournament, not only the victories but the setup and the ideas over your five seasons here!

[kronenblatt]

And with that we’ll now pause this tournament until four new players step in with suggestions on new interesting themes.

[MrCrow]

I would like to join the next Campio season. I want to suggest a theme related to Pyrrhus.

[hscic]

I am available too.
hscic

[Karvon]

I'd be interested in a Pyrrhus themed event myself.

Karvon

[principesromanes]

I too like a Pyrrhus theme.

Perhaps an early battle against Demetrius and the Macedonian army. Perhaps a battle against the Illyrians to his north. An obligatory battle against the romans - perhaps with some Greek allies. A battle against Carthage in Sicily, perhaps calling upon Syracuse as an ally. Definitely a nice variety of enemies to draw on.

[Karvon]

I recently completed a 15 game campaign as Pyrrhus with AAR posted in the forums.

I'd suggest possible enemies as follows:

1. Macedonian - Fighting in Greece
2. W Greek - Initial intervention in S. Italy
3. Syracusian - Opposition in Sicily
4. Carthaginian - Opposition in Sicily
5. Roman - Opposition in S. Italy

[kronenblatt]

I am available too.
hscic

@hscic: could you please confirm that you’re in for season 6?

Anyone else willing to step in if hscic still is no-show by Friday May 24?

[hscic]

Yes I am in.
Sorry..busy period
hscic

Season 6

End of Magna Graecia: rise and fall of Pyrrhus between 280 and 272 BC

Reigning Champion: -

Bottom level

• Leg 1

  • Armies: ? versus ?.
  • Map Terrain: ?.

• Leg 2
  • Players: MrCrow versus Karvon.
  • Armies: ? versus ?.
  • Map Terrain: ?.

[kronenblatt]

In each leg the two players therein (i.e., principesromanes and hscic for their leg, and MrCrow and Karvon for theirs) together decide on which two armies (whether with or without allies) appropriate for the historical theme, plus a map terrain, to use in their two battles as part of a mirror game.

Please then post armies and map terrain here, in this thread, and you're finally free to set up the mirror game in Field of Glory II:Ancients as follows:

• Paired (Mirror) Challenge.

• Custom Battle.

• Scenario: Open Battle.

• Armies: as decided by the two players themselves in each leg (see above).

• Turn limit: 24 turns.

• Force size: Large (1600 FP).

• Map size: Wide (40x32).

• Map type: as decided by the two players themselves in each leg (see above).

• No map re-rolls will be made.

Battles are to be concluded within an extended two-month period due to summer.
Battle outcomes, once resolved, are always posted by the victor, or the player having inflicted the most casualties, in a post of the tournament thread.
