Photos from my game against
Craig Mabon. Sennacherib’s finest pulled off an early arriving flank march which had the misfortune of low pip dice so couldn’t fully exploit the stratagem.
The Ptolemaic Imitation Legionnaires from the lowest dice command did the long march across the table to eventually set to grips with Craig’s refused flank.
Having also marched my pike block across the face of the enemy I also did a risky swap of pip priority just as the flank march arrived but survived the pip drain confusion.

| Companions repositioning to try and line up against auxiliaries. Superior Auxiliaries and Psiloi column heads to contest the rocky ground on Craig’s left. |
