Nice to see that it turned out as it should have done...historically correct.
Thanks for the battle report.
Cheers

Nice looking game with great minis. I'm not familiar with the rules; does it use the hexes for movement, or was that just the board being used? Regards, Dean

Thanks Paul!

Hi Dean, yes, HE uses Command and Colors Ancients. It's a Boardgame, that quite a few people choose too play with miniatures. Very fast moving, somewhat abstracted, heavily influenced by a deck of Command Cards. I play most of my own Ancient Games using the rules.

A shout out for the great pics! Gorgeous battlefield setup. Very inspiring!

Also a shout out for Command & Colors: Ancients. Brilliantly abstracts command-control and events in the card play. The card mechanic also allows the players to plan ahead and balance the need to maintain the intiative vs. the eventual need to replenish viable cards to do so.

Very tense games with loads of ancients feel, but without the needless complexity and length of many hard-core wargame rules.
