Turn 1
Badger73 attacks 17 Egypt using Arab (Conquest) 629-637 AD.
Egypt was for at least part of that time period (630-645 AD) controlled from Constantinople, so:
kronenblatt defends using Byzantine 600-649 AD.
Badger73's Islamic assault into Egypt falters from lack of faith

Imams are renewing instruction of the faithful.
kronenblatt's Byzantines are victorious 60-46 (14%). Prayers of gratitude rise like clouds of incense from Hagia Sophia.

Aetius39: attacks 21 Levant using Arab (Conquest) 629-637 AD. Badger73 defends using Sassanid Persian 629-651 AD.
Aetius (Arabs) defeats Badger73 (Persians) 43-5
The horse archers couldn't dent the Arab cavalry, while the Arab spearmen ran through the Persian infantry, which is unsurprising. Replaying history! Thanks for playing, the Persians fought valiantly^^

Nathangun: attacks 21 Levant using Arab (Conquest) 629-637 AD. Aetius39 defends using Byzantine 600-649 AD.
Aetius (Byzantines) defeats Nathangun (Arabs) 42-11
Reverse Manzikert! Most of the dreaded Arab spearmen could not damage much before their horse were taken out by the Byzantine cavalry. GG!

Probably due to your connection to the internet and/or the Slitherine forum. Have you tried to close down the game or at least to leave the Multiplayer Lobby and log in there again?
