Title: Going Down for the Last Time
Post by: Jon Freitag on March 28, 2023, 04:28:42 PM
One more Sumerian battle before I switch to another gaming period.  Game played using Basic Impetvs on a  hex grid.

 :) Bad luck - You would have thought Sumerians would like a hex grid given their number systems -
 but perhaps only for counting. At least one of the battle carts seemed to have a smashing time, at least to begin with. Thanks for the report.

Thank you, Dave!  I think we all had fun.  I faced four different players in four games, all played remotely.

Thanks Dave. The Sumerians are my latest project. I am still working on them although I have started expanding my Sea Peoples as well. I also have many more Romans and Carthaginians to paint (and Persians.... and Successor Pikemen....... and Assyrians........ and Egytpians and Hittites and................damn)!

Jon has a load more well painted Biblicals, who have been overshadowed of late.  Perhaps he could be persuaded to bring them to the field, or at least parade them in the Arrayed armies thread?

Yes, I could be persuaded to parade some of my other Biblical armies.
