Had a chance for a mornings gaming with a friend
(Machsmecha aka Chris)
Thought I would introduce him to DBA. We managed two games.
Here are a few pictures to prove it.
051 = Carthaginians (Boo Hiss!)
052 = Noble Republican Romans
This was game No. 1.
Romans advanced, keeping a nice straight line. The Carthaginians
got into a mess trying to bring their reserves across the river.
Thus when the Romans attacked they were able to pick Punic
off one by one. The four bases needed for victory soon came.
Wonderful, then came game two.
053 = Hannibal & his Motley Crue.
054 = Proud Latin Line.
055 = Setting a possible ambush in the hills. Not just their side that
can do 'Punic Treachery'
056 = I push Velites off on my right flank. It was a one way mission,
they tried to ambush some Gallic cav, only to get ridden all over!
057 = Carthago Delenda est! (Carthage Must be Destroyed!)
Unfortunately Chris is learning & starts to redeploy troops to his
left flank.
058 = I am already down 3 bases at this point. I have to do something
drastic if I am to avoid the ire of the Senate. My general launches
a charge into the fray. Hannibal see the opportunity for ending
this with personal glory. He leads his bodyguard straight for the
Roman Consul. Rome falls.
The Victor Ludorum (winner of the games) is Chris.
