Large battle-small figures!

As part of my on-going campaign,I fought this battle last night,and yet another fantastic game it was,full of excitement,colour and nerve racking tension(who could have thought that of a solo game??)

This is the scenario etc.On the throw of a dice,Horlix,the Semoness king,"sussed" out what Crustinuts had in mind for the two hills,and sent warbands from his back line to support his cavalry(damn!!!)

Top photo shows initial moves-not all of the front line warbands would move! bottom photo shows the "encounter" on hill A-in the background you can see that the warbands have now decided to attack the auxiliaries "en masse"

Top shows the aux. infantry and warbands getting stuck in-an even melee for a while,but casualties are mounting on both sides! bottom shows the troops on hill B facing each other off,but the Aux. infantry have managed to get through the woods,and are now in a position to out-flank the Gauls.

Crustinuts,worried about his left flank(Hill A!), is sending 5 cohorts from the legion to support!

The on-going melee is reaching "crunch time" as both sides have taken horrendous casualties-maybe time to exchange lines??

Top photo shows the exchanged lines-now the Gaul's 2nd line faced the legions,who threw their pila,and charged home-inevitable result!!! Bottom shows the troops on hill B in melee-the Gauls were out-numbered and suffered badly-however things were about to get even worse for them!

Top shows the uneven fight on hill A-the Roman cavalry were eventually forced to retire(it's good being retired!) bottom photo shows Scrotum's reserve cohorts marching to surround the Gauls on hill B-things are not looking good for the Gauls!!

The Semones are retiring everywhere,the troops on hill B are being wiped out,and the Aux.infantry have now reformed behind the Legions-all is lost for Horlix and his warbands-only one thing left for him to do-Fall on his sword!!!

As I said,this was another great game,the only thing that would have made it better,is if I could have had an opponent!!

One final shot of the board-a suicide charge by the remnants of the Semones' 3rd line can be seen-they were wiped out to a man!!

What none of the three Roman commanders saw was a group of German cavalry lurking in the woods-just observing,nothing else,just observing!!!!
