The second full set of post-Lockdown match reports hit the South Coast this time in 5 games of Egypto-Greek linear nonsense as a lockdown-repainted set of Hoplites meets some lockdown-rebased Egyptians to cobble together a podcast-busting Saitic Egyptian army to take on all comers in a Greek & Roman World themed event.



Marvel as possibly the most one-dimensional army to hit the table in years attempts to outfox, out play but much more often simply outlast its varied opponents as they take on the Graeco-Indians, Seleucids, Late Romans, Ch'in Chinese and Classical Indians in these 5 ADLG match reports.



As usual they feature all of the nonsense you have by now grown to expect, including comments on local wildlife, restaurant reviews, beer analysis, very bad puns, randomly generated Egyptian curses, priapic wooden war wagons, a smattering of Greek and Egypto-Arabic swearwords and buckets of pictures with somewhat inappropriate captions and speech bubbles.



The reports are online and available to peruse now!

Well, that worked surprisingly better than I expected.

Do you think some different approach tactics may have made such a list even more effective? Perhaps some refused flanks, wheel, echelon, flank only advance, etc?

In the last two games you seemed to focus on just moving forward, after having success in game 3 with a slightly different approach technique.

Not sure if I am making any sense.

The terrain - and the way my opponents took advantage of it effectively - in the last couple of games really stymied any chance I had of doing anything. In Game 4 for example, my army was already in combat after it's first move (!), so the opportunity for clever stuff was rather curtailed :-)

Went to view this and got a warning for a possible Trojan still.
