[toska]

Division F

toska - German 933-1049 AD with Polish 966-1057 AD allies beats General Kostas - Frankish 751-887 AD with Saxon (Continental) 600-804 AD allies 44%-5%

Division E

Blagrot (Arab City 300-633 AD) beat random27 (Roman 285-312 AD with Arab (Bedouin) 300-636 AD allies) 41% - 9%

Arab foot and Bedouin lancers swarmed the roman lines looking for gaps, as soon as the first flanks were found the roman line crumbled. Thanks for the game and I'm calling it vengence for beating me 3 times last season

[Darkwater247]

alas the chivalrous Darkwater247 is not reporting my failure, so:

Division F

Darkwater247 Gepid 567 beats Conteshard Byzantine 493-550 AD 42-17

my take of the battle is: Gepids are bad, bad people

Haha thank you Conteshard, That was a lucky rally I got on the last turn.

[harveylh]

Division A

harveylh (1200) (4) - Frankish 751-887 AD with Croatian 625-849 AD allies defeats Triarii (1600) (1) - Dailami 928-1055 AD with Arab (Syria/Iraq) 890-1008 AD allies, 60-30

Good game and closer than the score indicates. Both armies smashed the opposing left flank but the Frankish cavalry were able to inflict significant damage though the Dailami light cavalry lancers and elephant were very effective.

[angel42052]

Division F

angel42052 (Dabuyid 642-760 AD) defeats wmpryor (Irish 900-1049 AD with Viking 900-1049 AD allies) 60 - 39

Well played by my opponent. IIRC, hordes of missile troops pouring out of the woods on my flank. Masterful use of deception as well.

[Macedonczyk]

Division A

Macedonczyk (Andalusian 756 -1049 AD) - Snugglebunnies (Byzantine 963-987 AD with Arab (Syria/Iraq) 890-1008 AD allies) 45:4

It was one of my hardest matches, although the result does not look like that.
The key to win was to capture the forest and neutralize Tagmatic Lancers.

[TomoeGozen]

Division E

TomoeGozen (Byzantine with Arab allies) defeats ggarynorman (Pictish with Scots-Irish allies) 58 -31.

The massed Pictish infantry found little help in the terrain and could not avoid the mobile Byzantine cavalry being able to get around flanks and pretty much pick which bits they wanted to attack.
A tough match up for the Picts who put up a brave fight particularly on their right where things got a bit dodgy for a while!

thanks to ggarynorman for a good game.

[edb1815]

Pool A Group 3

edb1815 Etruscan defeated ahuyton Roman 63-43

A close fought match with the raw hoplites standing up better than expected. The Etruscan cavalry had a big assist in the victory as well. Well fought by my opponent.

[DryNick]

Division E

DryNick (Arab) beats Morat (French with Viking allies) 62-34

Thanks for the game.

[Geoffrey.P.Smith]

Division E

Geoffrey.P.Smith Galation 62-65 BC beat rs2excelsior Samnite 355-272 BC ; 51 - 13

A lucky break at the crucial time & place.It was a close battle until the Galatian noble cavalry unexpectedly passed a morale check from 4 javelin attacks, allowing a charge to the rear that effectively tipped the Samnites into a series of routs.
