A grand afair!

Last night 6 of us braved the cold and wind and rain to have a grand game involving Romans against Dacians and Germans.

This was the simple scenario,Andy took command of the Legion,Nick commanded the Auxiliaries,Brian commanded the Germans,and I took the Dacians-Paul and Graham helped out where necessary!!

Burnt out fort complete with little lead corpses!!

The table layout with Romans on the right.

Andy's Romans make a grand entrance,my Dacians make a controlled advance!

Brian's Germans make a wild charge towards the Aux. legion,Paul is giving Nick some tactical advice.

Dacians brutally attack the Roman line-and were brutally repulsed!!!-is this the way the game is going to go?

Germans getting stuck in!!-Nick ignored Paul's sound tactical advice and suffered for it!!

Where have all the Dacians gone??-retired (it's good being retired!) to regroup,Sarmatian cavalry are doing well and soundly beating the Roman horse-hurrah!!

Dacians have had to accept defeat,with minor successes on the flanks,but nothing the Romans couldn't handle-oh dear!!

Despite Graham(who had taken over from Brian,as commander of the Germans) losing his CinC,they swept on to victory,so really a draw should have been declared-well we will leave it at that!!

A good and exciting game, which we all enjoyed-roll on next Sunday when we will all be at York.
