Battle Report - Club Day Art De La Guerre

 Hello Folks,


Had another fun day down at the club. very nice today so we were able to play outside! I had my Triumvirate Roman army to play Jeff's Normans.


Here's the deployment, legion to the left Roman Cav to the right. Facing off against a concerning amount of Norman Knights.


Normans advance, third command in ambush but it didn't arrive.

Romans advance to match. Very few pips on the right flank, so after Jeff explained how elephants work with mounted that guy decided to join the end of the foot line! This turned out quite well.

The knights come charging in, but I roll really well and just loose 1 fight. Most of them lock which is just fine really. The knights loose their impact bonus on following rounds making it pretty even, but the foot can grind for longer.


I advance the other line of legions into battle with the Norman foot, and move the archers up to have a few shots. 

Battling away in the full light of day now! Due to my great luck you can now start to see a few Norman units are getting destroyed which is just fine by me. ! cav chases away my light archers, and due to lows pips and the very nice field only 2 cav are able to fight my roman mounted. Also pretty good! Plus the mediocre elephant is doing great work.


The slightly better Roman Legions are really cutting up the Norman Foot. But the knights are having a tough time as well.


Finally the Romans are able to break the Normans and it is a win. 

As usual here are a shots of the other games:


The professionals fighting it out.

Fun day out at the club for sure, great with this nice weather!

Thanks;
Mike
