End of the year battle

[FierceKitty]

The Assyrians sent in a pre-emptive strike against the Scythians today. Very rash of them, and they are going to be looking at understrength regiments for many years as a result. Again, we both found that dice can roll more snake's eyes than might appear mathematically possible.

[FierceKitty]

Our attack was delayed by bad omens, but Lee wasn't inclined to come forward fast either.

[FierceKitty]

Bad dice, but we broke their right wing.

[FierceKitty]

Some hard fighting here; Lee's shooting dice were terrible, but so were my melee rolls.

[FierceKitty]

Her chariots hit me hard, but it wasn't enough to save the invaders.

Another sweeping battle - great stuff! I like the density of troops to the desert, looks like a battle, but also lots of space for movement. 

Did you manage to win this one FK?

[FierceKitty]

In fact, but for the Sudanese slaughter the other day, I've been winning a lot recently (not always against Lee, mind you). This one could have gone either way; we were at match point on the last morale tests.

No doubt the little Siamese person is limbering up to drag me through the mud in the next half dozen games.
