A few months ago Geoff and Zels asked us to put on a game to run through our own home grown set of ancient rules that we have been using for a long time now. It was my Republican Romans vs Ross' Antigonas One-Eye's Macedonians.
|
The Roman right flank- Elephants and Light Infantry backed up by a unit of Triarii. We won on this side. |
|
The Roman left.....we lost on this side. |
|
The Hastati and Princeps. |
|
Ross's ( Macedonian) lights dancing around my flank. |
|
The phalanx!!....Always looks so damned deadly! |
|
The Legionaries getting on the flank of the phalanx...a damned good position to be in...but the Roman flanks collapse before I could deliver the coup de grace! |
|
Legionaries- disordered, with heavy casualties.....about to be run down.... |
In the end, the Romans put up a good fight....but the Macedonians took battle honours.
Superb and VERY impressive armies...with a fantastic "coup de grâce"!
