Saga: Age Of Alexander

[punkrabbitt]

The noble Persians defeated the hedonistic Greeks at the farmstead of Testicles and the fires to Ahura-Mazda shall burn long into the night!





OK so Kurt and I played some Saga 2nd edition Age of Alexander, his Greeks against my Persians in a 4-point game. We were still learning the rules and made a few mistakes, but the Persians eaked out a win with one unit left to generate a Saga die.






 
The opening strike by the Greek cavalry on their right flank was repelled by the Persian horsemen, and then the Greek riders were destroyed. It was a rather impressive opening for the Persians, but after that neither side really generated much momentum. The Persian archers in their Combine Units really swayed the day, with the mutual annihilation of both Warlords sealing the Persian victory.
