Title: Double Duty with Armati 2nd Edition
Post by: Chris on June 02, 2021, 10:09:14 AM
Gents,

Somewhat ahead of "schedule," please stop by and take a look at this split-personality engagement between a force of Galatians and an army commanded by Pyrrhus.

Here is the link:

Looking back on this project, I am tempted to try something similar again, but with different armies and perhaps a larger contest . . .

Thanks for your time.

Cheers,
Chris

nice report Chris. A lot of 'work' went into this!

Wouldn't having the helens commanded by Keraunos have given a faster more dramatic game?

Dave and Jim,
Thanks for reading and commenting.  :)

Mark,
Confess that I am not familiar with "Keraunos" so I will have to do some research. I guess an apology is in order for the fictional action not being quite fast or dramatic enough. For what it's worth, such an exercise wherein I split my "personality" might be well worth a revisit, although with different armies.

Thanks again to all for taking a look.

Cheers,
Chris

The headline is summed up in his last words.

Those barbarians are no match for the Ptolemies, we don't need to wait for the phalanx, let's just charge now ...
