The state of play.
True. And also if I draw.
Thank you. But as @chiquichops said, it will only matter if I win or draw.Yes he did, well done sir.
Battle is now truly joined.
@kronenblatt I'm having trouble updating the game the last couple of day's, will try to sort it out.
No probs, I'm happy for every day of relief I get from the trouble I put myself in (or rather the trouble you put me in).
But I of course hope you get it solved.
Cheeky.
I'm not going down without a fight.
You may not need to: we're exchanging losses here.I'm not going down without a fight.
Alas I been defeated.
Oh no! (Sobs into toga)
Yes, 59-34. Many thanks for the game!
The Greeks took a deliberately defensive stance, knowing that the Romans had to win to avoid annihilation. But they were surprised by the swift Roman movement that overtook their right flank and their (on paper) superior cavalry. In their centre though the Greeks had amassed their pikes, units that slowly but steadily grinded down the smaller Roman units. And on the left, Greek cavalry and medium foot managed to defeat the triarii.
When the dust settled, the Romans had won the Greek hill but lost the battle itself. And the campaign?

Will look at it tomorrow — maybe Romans should sue for peace
