Unable to sleep due to the humiliation of my last defeat and not being left alone by the ghosts of William the Conqueror, Robert Guiscard and Bohemond of Antioch, I had to get my Normans out again to wipe the smug look off Ross' face.
 |
| Mid-game- close and bloody melee. |
 |
| Opening moves and early clashes. My manoeuvres are in red. |
 |
| My right flank- slamming into his archers- this time I didn't have a commander attached...and this time it worked.....I smashed them and then ploughed into his second line! |
 |
| CRUNCH TIME!! |
 |
| His archers thrown back, causing mayhem in his line |
 |
| Waiting on my left flank |
 |
| My commander sitting behind his line |
 |
| A brutal melee on the extreme flank. |
|
| The charge markers all indicating who is charging who....and he has three down ( on the right) . I have five charge markers down ( on the left). |
 |
| My archers firing at his infantry |
 |
| My boys slamming into his |
 |
| Heavy attack coming onto my flank.....they were too late to change the result....the other flank was where the decision was made. |
In the end, I managed a very narrow victory- mainly because this time I destroyed his archers...and didn't risk my commander needlessly!!
Now that’s a great way to settle a score. Fab looking game, John!
