Friendship cannot interfere with the defense of Rome!
@Badger73 as Babylonian (626-529 BC) prevails over @Rico as Assyrian (681-609 BC) 64-50 / +14%. It was a touch-and-go battle that required annihilation of the opponent's army to secure any kind of victory. Routed Assyrians refused to rally betraying their Yellow Empire lord. Good game, @Rico!
MESOPOTAMIA returns to White benevolence and a reunited province. Peace reigns again in Persia and Pontica.
WHITE Empire recaptures MESOPOTAMIA from YELLOW with a +14% Minor Victory.

After a grueling battle... shield to shield... tusks to metal... the closing moments depended on an elephant not being turned into burgers, a group of soldiers rallying on the very edge of the board... but fortunately for me, my cavalry were close at hand... to push them over the edge and thus snatching victory! (60-55)
Fun game thanks Badger73.

I will be out of town until Sunday....if that is too long to wait I can forfeit my remaining battle and be ready for next round.
It's fine we can wait ... we have come this far ;-)
@Rico, Red repulses Greens attack in Cisalpina 60%-40%. @Wellsonian Thanks for a hard-fought battle. Tough to fight around elephant droppings.
You played a great game.
I just wanted to compete and offer a little tougher challenge than the last couple of battles. Thanks for the game.
Latest battle result in:
GREEN attack into CISALPINA beaten back with a -20% Minor Defeat.
All that's left is the CARTHAGE battle -- @mTk and I should have it wrapped up soon.
