The Empire Strikes Back

[FierceKitty]

Today I led late imperial Romans against Goths and Alans. A hard fight, with some dismal luck on both sides, but an eventual clear victory for the bad guys. Fortunate; Lee's been quietly racking up victories this last fortnight.

Some more. I do have oval shielded Palatine legionary types too, but they didn't do much today.

[FierceKitty]

And again. Noteworthy features: light cavalry operating together carefully can make hash of heavier stuff; legionaries are not ideally suited to fight an enemy like this, being armed and trained to win a stand-up fight against heavy foot, which are not the strong suit of a Gothic army; and I should never get into a cavalry scrap against Lee, even with a deeper, better equipped formation of higher quality led by a general - I just get bogged down. Thank heavens our Frankish and Byzantine allies turned up in time!

Boo...Hiss. 

Cheers - Phil.

Lovely looking figures Alexander .

Happy mix of Pendraken, Steve Barber, Magister Militum, Baggage Train (only time they have actually delivered!), and Copplestone.

And the rest...


Good looking game, and good to see you getting plenty of games in

Situation normal then ?
