002 Catalaunian Fields (451 AD) Roman Left

two games, the first won by Hun 7-4, the second by Roman 7-2

Vittoria Unni 7-3. La battaglia si svolge inizialmente sulle due ali. Attila si spinge in avanti e respinge gli Alani senza pero' eliminarli definitivamente. Sulla destra unna I Guerrieri attaccano il centro romano ma dopo un iniziale successo vengono respinti ed eliminati. La Cavalleria Pesante gepida di Arderico interviene caricando e salva la situazione portando a casa la vittoria.

Both sides used heavy cavalry charges to break the enemy center, with some spectacular successes, but also losing many units in the process. The Gepids withstood the Roman assault thanks to their warrior units while on the Hun left the Huns proper managed to push the Alans to the edge of the board and rout them for a 7-4 victory.

In my opinion the Roman side to have a chance of victory must rearrange the troops in the first part of the game. The left/center side is under the charge of the Hun's warriors, and the two heavy troops are too weak in the first part of the battle. The three Roman HC cavalry are set too far from the other troops, it's impossible for the Alans cavalry to break into the line of Attila. Hun have to do one thing: advance.

Huns win 7-4
