This game was to be the first outing for my Pyrrhic Greek army against my veteran Carthaginians. Two of my pals took arms against me for the game. The Table: The game was organised to have the two sides trying to control 2 out of 4 marked objectives. My opponents didn't know mine & vice versa: Deployment followed the Field of Glory rules: There were 16 units a side. Both sides had supply camps: Capturing these added Victory Points. The Commanders Carthaginian & Greek: The battle was a dramatic clash between various troop types: The mighty Greek phalanx was formidable: A highlight was the battle between skirmish units: Anti-elephant artillery (was fairly disappointing): In the end, after 11 game turns, the Carthaginians took their objectives & broke the phalanx: ....next time,,,,, donald

Dear Donald,
Such a fine looking game with a wonderful range of figures all painted to perfection and in action on excellent terrain. Great to see your fort and lookout as part of it.
Excellent morning viewing and an inspiration to we who are painting in the cold!
Regards, James

The Pyrrhics are a w-i-p. I'm probably going to add 1 or maybe 2 more phalanxes. And the Nellies would clearly like another BG of Nellies for company. HaT has long promised a box of Pyrrhic elephants but I'm not sure I can wait for them.
