[deeter]

Division B

Deeter (Antigonid) defeats Rob123 (Hannibal in Africa) 40-8

The Carthaginians deployed in a strong hill top position while the Antigonids set up some distance away with woods on one flank and rough covering the other. After some vigorous skirmishing, the lighter Carthaginian right came down to threaten the woods. The Antigonids mounted a mixed-arms attack on these with lancers and pikes, let by their CnC astride an elephant. While in pursuit, the general encountered the enemy CnC, also on an elephant.

On distant Mount Olympus, the gods looked down and at the moment, perversely smote them both simultaneously! The only loses in the melee were both CnCs. This dismayed the Antigonids with a thuero and a pike unit fragged. Fortunately, both survived but could add little to the fight. In another sign of divine disfavor, the Punics seemed to rally as quickly as they could be routed. Still, their right was crushed before heavier troops could save them.

Deeter

I wonder: what are the odds of losing both generals in an otherwise bloodless melee?

angusosborne Indian 546-599 AD with Hepthalite 350-570 AD allies
and
phlewis Byzantine 551-578 AD

Draw 64:64

Hard to sum up: the Byzantines won in the centre, I feel the Indian archers came to far forward. The Indians won on the right flank, which could have been decisive except that at one point one Indian Lancer ended up ahead of the rest of the line and when three Byzantine cavalry ganged up on him the ensuing pursuit swept away two other cavalry in one fell swoop. Not long after that it looked as though the Byzantines would comfortably win, but in Elephant power brought it back to a draw. Great game!

Apologies to all my current opponents. My wife has come down with covid and I'm having to take care of the family for a few days, so my gaming time has evaporated. Hopefully, I'll be able to play a little in a few days.

Morat (Ostrogoths/Germans) beat wellsonian (Germanic Foot Tribes/Romans) 59-27

Ostrogoth cavalry got round the edge of their opponents and with a degree of luck (lancers holding off cataphracts for what felt like an age and a couple of other fortunate events) got into the flank of the infantry battle.

Thanks to wellsonian for a good game - which was closely fought throughout.

Div A

Zawzgrzyt Andalusian 756-1049 defeats BobGanoush Byzantine 904-962 with Croatian allies 56-28

The battle line was largely based on the deep stream, as the brilliant, Andalusians general only noticed when his veterans spearmen nearly lost their cohesion by charging skirmishers. After heavy fights, several flanking attacks were successful, which finally gave the Andalusians an advantage and win.

Good game, thanks.

klay (kyrenean) defeats tyronec (macedon) 60 to 55

an amazing battle where the greeks attempt a double envelopment. early on the Macedonians crush every attempt by the greeks at pinning down the macedon line. as the day wore on small gaps opened in the Macedonian line and flanks begin to show. the greeks, having lost many more units seem to lack enough units to capitalize on the gaps. but then an opportune flank attack on a pike unit presents itself. as the pike falls, another gap opens...and so just as nightfall approaches a final macedon unit falls and the battle ends. a great come from behind, nearly reversed again battle.
