Hi Mark,

Hi Mark,
When I tried the scenario in Vassal I've noticed that there is no mentioning of the Julian Legion rule in the Notes. Can you please clarify if it is in effect or no?

Julian Legions rule is in effect for the Romans, I checked with Alessandro, and I'd swear I put it in.. bugger

EDIT: I checked the VSAV file I have, and the Legions rule is there..


so here it is again

Thanks for checking Mark, everything is in there.

Round 2 Game 1 - Weser river

TTK (Rome): #7 banners

soul1st (Germ.): #6 banners

The Romans were massed in the center as the barbarian cavalry charged down the flank...
It was not possible to stop it, many Roman troops were trampled into the ground. An unnamed Pops (Bat'ka) (Roman officer) was killed.

One barbarian cav. squad did not even suffer losses until the end of the game...

In this situation, Germanicus had to take the initiative.
His legionaries broke away from the Roman line and rammed the barbarians deep.
Cut down 4 units.

Then the German hird-squad returned with the chief, who dismounted from his horse. They managed to drive the legionaries into the forest and kill Germanicus. But the Legion retaliated by making the score 7: 6...

Thanks, Twan

Round 2 Game 2 - AC27 Weser River

GAME 1
mk20336 (Germans): 7 banners
scipio1zama (Romans): 3 banners

Game started with two Line Commands. Thanks to good cards I was able to occupy all hills and prevent Romans from entering them. But the crucial move the Cavalry advance, unsuccessful Mike's counter-attack and then my Mounted Charge. Without left wing Romans could barely withstand the Germanic onslaught. Good game although pretty tough on Germans.

I had problems with connection thus log file in 3 parts.





GAME 2
mk20336 (Romans): 7 banners
scipio1zama (Germans): 6 banners

Very tough and exciting game for both sides. Romans very quickly advanced to the hill, forcing Germans to play quickly Double Time. Dice was not with Mike today so instead of massive damage, two German Warriors laid dead. The Romans were close to the breakthrough and.. then Mike played rally which pushed my forces back. It was 5-5, 6-6 and then the contest on the hills between my warriors and Mike's Auxilia - 3d roll with crazy results - game could really finish any way.



Thanks to Mike for two very good and enjoyable games!
