Check out this thread for ideas - there are a couple of others with Zama tactics, but I can't seem to find them right now. Remember to check out GBOR as well.

Hang out in the lower left until his heavies start to move, then run your cavalry in on a wide sweep left to eat up his archers. Fight on the rough ground as much as possible, and target your missilers on his heavies in the rough ground.

Thanks very much. I have come so close, have killed off Phil, the bulk of his army either dead or run off, and only proabably only about half unit of his heavies remaining .... thought they would break and run, but time ran out on me...... Will post back when I win!!!!
Think I might restart the whole campaign as I have on GBoR, and hope that with the back up of the intel fro the forum and hopefully my gained experience to win out in the end game. Thanks again.
