We've only completed one game, which is why I hadn't reported yet. We'll see what we can do about the second although work have called me in tonight, which has screwed my weekend
BTW I've seen everyone's reporting blocks lost.....you're welcome to but they don't count in the preliminary rounds of this format, so you can save yourselves the effort.
Game 1
BrentS (Persian) Banners won 6
Tomek (Greek) Banners won 4
A really enjoyable and hard fought battle. Tomek had the upper hand early with two MFM's to whittle me away and then two Double Times to charge both flanks of hoplites into my lines. I was able to retire my right flank into the hills in the centre but was 3-1 down and looking to be in serious trouble. Clash of Arms was the winner......my left flank survived the Double Timing Spartan hoplites (just) and wiped them out on battle back and then Clash. A fluffed First Strike had me worried but a leader kill helped my cause. Well played by Tomek and tense.
Game 2
BrentS (Greek) 6 banners
Tomek (Persian) 2 banners
Hard for the Persians in this one if things don't go right with cards and dice and there wasn't much Tomek could do about this one. The hoplites just moved in to nullify the Persian ranged superiority (Order Mounted x 2 really helped with mobilising both flanks) and pounded away.
Brent.
