Div A

2 ericdoman1 Ghurid with Hindo Indian (North) defeated 9 heidipie irish 1260 with anglo irish 62 - 54

I thought I'd won this game and then I had a massive collappse on my left, where heidipie had now taken the lead. Fortunately for me managed to rally a unit and my cavalry wing won the day.

Very good bllody game.

Stones 1985 (Neo Hittite/Aramean) beat harveylh (Sumerian/Akkadian 2192-1762 BC w/Elamite 1800) by a score of 64 to 52.

A very close game that could have gone either way, with the Neo Hittites/Arameans just eking out a victory. Thanks for the game.

Division C

Vakarr (Thracian Roman client with Roman ally) defeated Indibil (Lombard 568-569)
61 - 46

A tough battle that could have gone either way. The Lombards were better overall, and better in open terrain (and there was lots of that) but we managed to drag their foot onto some of the patches of rough terrain while sending in the swarm against his cavalry. It helped that, when counting losses, each of his warbands was worth something like 1.5 of my units.

[Morat]

Div 2


Morat Neapolitan 1443-1500 with Venetian beat Captainwaltersavage Order of St John 1450-1500: 63-56

Proper nailbiter. Order of St John advanced on a broad front: Neapolitans thought that they might be able to concentrate their forces onto the Order's left flank before the centre and the right arrived.

This very nearly didn't come off. I think with one more turn, a slightly different pursuit result (and slightly better RNG) the Order would have caught the Neapolitans in a vice. Very fortunate to come out of this ahead. Could very easily have gone the other way.

Many thanks to Captainwaltersavage for an excellent game played in an excellent spirit.

Div B

Morat Ostrogothic 493-561 + Germanic Foot Tribe 260-599 allies beat Najanaja Byzantine 551–578 : 63-42

On a battlefield beset with small woods, the Ostrogoths laid out mostly foot to the right and massed their horse on the left. After some initial reverses at the hand of Byzantine bows the Ostrogoth horse were able to break through and join the battle in the centre and on the right. Victory was only as a result of some really stubborn warbands, that held out much longer than they had any right to do allowing the horse to get them over the line.

Thanks to Najanaja for a hard fought battle that on another day might have swung very differently.

Div A.

tyronec (Carthago) defeats Nijis (Meroitic) 43-3

Tough one for the Kushites facing better units all across the front.

[tyronec]

Div A

tyronec (Roman) defeats random (Palmyran) 61-58.

random was most unlucky on this one, we both thought he had it won a few turns from the end and the Romans only held on thanks to a couple of their fragged units not routing on the last turn.

I see keksold hasn't played any games yet. I just gave him a Div. C challenge, is he playing?

Not yet, but I contacted him on the discord and it seems like he is around and is planning to. There's a fair amount of time left, so we'll see.

I hit one in the rear with heavy cavalry while the chariot was fragmented, and it didn't break, it just ran away, rallied, and was about to charge the flank of one of my units when the game ended.

Historically accurate lol. They headed out between the battle lines and were probably running up on their chariot poles, doing the edge-feat and the chariot-feat and the thunder-feat and various acrobatics, then they just needed to pull back, swap out a few horses and get some more javelins and they were good to go. Read Caesar and the Tain...
