Year 3
In Year 3 Mythica attacked Keltica

| Welcome to dank, drear Keltica (picture taken on the day it didn't rain) |
The random terrain gave a balanced battlefield and it was the defenders who went on the offensive. The Kelticans had 4 infantry and two archer units. The Mythicans, 4 infantry, 1 archer and 1 cavalry.

The Kelticans advanced and set to aggressively

but they were soon reduced to Exhaustion Point (30% hits) by the solid Mythican soldiery.

Having lost their archers, and now unable to take aggressive action, the Kelticans were an easy target for the Mythican bowmen...

A decisive win for Mythica. The Campaign Map now looked like this
Year 4
Mythica was again on the offensive in Year 4. For this battle the terrain generated favoured the attackers with two hills close by.

The Pseudo-Klasicans pushed forward hoping to quickly drive the enemy out of their territory, however things weren't going their way

The Mythican General captured the hill to his right and was using the height advantage to put the hurt on the attacking infantry.

However, the tenacious Pseudo-Klasicans fought on and began to push back their opponents. Despite the Mythican General personally leading a charge that drove the enemy off the hill, his centre collapsed and suddenly his army began to rout. The day was lost (as was an Aggression Point).

With this indecisive result the drawn situation continues and another battle needs to be fought.
(Campaign Rules are in the previous post).
Feisty Mythicans! Good to see campaign progress…one of the two superpowers must eventually win an invading battle, surely? Or will there be an iron curtain built between the two rival empires 😮 ? Great stuff 👍👍👍⚔️🎲
ReplyDeleteThanks Martin - the Knock Out may yet turn into a Stalemate
DeleteI am rootin' for the Mythicans. They take no crap.
ReplyDeleteTrue that!
DeleteThe campaign continues, but still no side has gained a decisive advantage (much less held that advantage to progress to further victories). Much is “still to be decided” on the field of battle. I look forward to further news ⚔️⚔️
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Geoff
You summed it up nicely Geoff - further updates to come!
DeleteAn excellent campaign thus far. I think I'll be rooting for Clasica. With both sides having two territories does one side have to win two battles when attacking or will one successful attack settle the issue.
ReplyDeleteThank you Mark. The Pseudo-Klasica (Greeks with Roman Archers) force in this game are my most successful little army so I was expecting them to win!! Still no definitive result.
DeleteIn this Knock Out Campaign system, a victory by the attacker means they absorb any territories held by the side they beat, so in this case it will be an outright victory.
