Seleucids were my first choice but lots of people were using them. Galatians were my third choice and are a bit of a one-trick wonder, charge and you will usually win. A bit boring. Also you are going to lose units (nothing has good armour) so even if you win, you do not tend to win big. The Romans in my second game beat me 4226 points to nothing! (a good 32-0 win).<br /><br />Only the last game went as I wanted it to - break the flanks and attack from the side. And even the Romans were breaking through my centre.Veni Vidi Vicihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18444234905441573466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1548719813281420723.post-23116082544355883502012-02-22T19:44:36.258+00:002012-02-22T19:44:36.258+00:00Great report Justin :-) love the photos of Mr Gibb...Great report Justin :-) love the photos of Mr Gibbins Late Romans, If I was to do an ancients army Late Roman would be my thing:-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1548719813281420723.post-56649811579562957632012-02-21T15:37:18.002+00:002012-02-21T15:37:18.002+00:00Your extra points are probably for getting your ar...Your extra points are probably for getting your army list in on time, etc (I know that's where more than half mine came from!)<br /><br />I was starting to get the hang of the British by the end (the first tournament game was only my second ever with that list) - the problem is still that badly-timed failed warband rolls can leave you open to being charged, and even if you get to charge, it's very touch-and-go against anything formed with extra attacks. Some more practice at combined arms is called for :DMike Whitakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02165272678144625943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1548719813281420723.post-67501215333479423742012-02-20T23:00:06.069+00:002012-02-20T23:00:06.069+00:00Nice to see you too, we barbarian types must stick...Nice to see you too, we barbarian types must stick together.Veni Vidi Vicihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18444234905441573466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1548719813281420723.post-2385790862811407882012-02-20T13:57:15.463+00:002012-02-20T13:57:15.463+00:00Heh :D
