Hi guys,
I've just uploaded a Log File about Schirtaea scenario played vs CJ (slave army).
You can find it HERE .

After an initial manoeuver and skirmish phase with some arrows... the two armies met on the Roman left flank with a group of 4 units advancing with their Slave leader.
Light Roman infantry managed to survive the attack, even if suffering the most.
Romans reacted with Medium Troops and gained first 2 Victory points.
Slave army tried to outflank romans but without success, losing the support of his medium cavalry and his entire right flank.
Partial Result: Slave 1- Romans 5
Befor the end game slave army managed to catch an unsupported MC with 1 block left... and finally got his Victory Point.
It was a Roman Victory (6-1) with som die roll help...

HERE you can also find a log file from a two years ago game with David Andrew.

Slave army (me) started with some aggressive attack on Roman Left side (Medium Cavalry, Warriors and Leader) and supported them with a Double Time card in the center, letting some more Warriors, Medium Infantry and Leader to advance.
Partial result: Slave 4 - Romans 1
Romans reacted with a perfectly played "Line Command card" reestablishing the battle outcome with a partial result of Slave 4 - Romans 4.
Slaves tried one last "charge" with Cavalry, but only managed to get 5th vicroty points.
At this time Romans (with a perfectly suited "Order Medium" card) crushed away the Slave Army.
Final result: Slave 5 - Romans 6
It's been really close and enjoying.

In three battles I twice commanded an army of slaves, and once an army of Rome. All three times victories were on my side. The first game was 6: 2 in favor of slaves, the second game 6: 5 in favor of Rome, the third game 6: 4 in favor of slaves.
