I just want to say something about this part of Rule 6 that was introduced this season,

"If your opponent has not moved at all for 7 days without explanation then you are entitled to claim the match automatically by using the in-game facility to do this on the multiplayer system."

You do not need to ask my permission to claim matches under this rule. You can just go ahead and claim the match if your opponent has gone missing without explanation. If you feel a bit uncomfortable about doing this, I suggest you send a PM to your opponent after about 5 days asking them to either make a move or explain why they cannot. Otherwise, you will claim the match. There is no real reason for me to be involved in the process.

hidde (Pyrrhus) beat Cunningcairn (Macedonians) 43-8

[Zardoz02]

Division E

Zardoz02 (Romans) won against Bluefin (Pyrrhic): 31 - 63. Not quite a "pyrrhic" victory for the Romans but the endgame was a fun chase around due to rallying Pyrrhics and a lack of Roman cavalry to steamroller the survivors. As Napoleon said: "without cavalry battles have no result" .

[harveylh]

Division B, Round 5

harveylh (Indo-Skythians) beats dkalenda (Kushans) 40-13

The two armies deployed were almost mirror images of one another. The difference in the game was the Kushans had their medium bow infantry successfully attacked early in the game by a combined assault of cataphracts, one elephant and opposing medium bow infantry. The loss of the four medium bow infantry was too much for the Kushans to overcome. In addition, a nearby elephant unit was fragmented by missed morale checks which allowed two Indo-Skythian cataphracts free rein. Overall the Kushans had worse than average luck.
