The Successors Slug it out - again

Tuesday evening saw the Macedonians and Ptolemaics exhaust each other once again in the campaign.  Graham and I played the former, Gordon and simon the latter.  The right half of both sides won convincingly, so it was the usual strategic draw.  No photos, because life was busy that day and I didn't find time to roll up terrain in advance, never mind dig out the camera.  Fortunately, I had already packed the figures the previous weekend.

Next up in the campaign is a large grudge match in Iberia as Scipio takes on Hannibal again.  We have scheduled that one for a week on Tuesday, although I may ask for a postponement because if I squeeze in an extra week or two, I will finish my Scutarii so they can join in.  Next week is Mark's refight of Hastings, so at the moment I'm sorting out the two armies for that one. It will make a nice change from the classical warfare we have been playing at the club.  I've also realised that the guys I'm using for the bulk of the Saxon army (not the Huscarls - too many axes!) will do at a pinch for pretty much any early medieval foot.  All I'll need to do is vary the banners.  The good thing about this is that I can use them as various types for Chalons.  More of which anon...
