C3C PBEM : "Cannae" - Rise of Rome scenario (level : medium)

[viper275]

GPS. Here's the big battle... Kill 1 army, 1 elephant, and 5 mercenaries at Carthage (you really defended it!) The Romans lose one archer. Land at Aleria (where'd all of the defenses go ?)

This may be a bit tougher than I thought...

 

[Yamamoto]

Only one archer killed?

hmm.. that is not good! some cartaghians general heads will role during the next hours!

 

[viper275]

Well, the only surprising part was that my archer won, and that was against a non-fortified numidian mercenary. That's a 59% chance of the mercenary winning. Since I have Legionary IIs, there's about an 85% chance of a win with one of them. For the army, that's still about a 63% chance of a win. But go ahead and purge the generals, since I don't know how many more mercenaries there will be.

 

[Yamamoto]

well, I have 35 mercenaries left there, more or less. And all will be martires at this pace.
Anyway, the units are in a walled city. So I guess that ratio shouldnt be so bad to our side...

But hey, dont ask clemency about those dummy generals. I already started cutting heads!

Yama the evil

 

[viper275]

I... need.... reinforcements!

 

[Gnarfflinger]

We flee, but have a poor sense of direction. We're trying to hide inside the Persian cities...

GPS...

 

[Yamamoto]

Roman invasion sent home... but they missed the bus!

1 legionary army killed. (bye caesar)
1 legionary battalion destroyed.
all known fleet boats sunked (four...).

Abandoned Aleria and Caralis.

By now, all mediterranean islands are desert islands... well they still have some legions and one or another cartaghian units... but no more cities or population, either carthagian or roman...
Pherhaps it will be a nice place for vacation... in future.

Marcos Aurelius, the new leader of roman (? who knows?), stay there and take care of your womens... You are not welcome on Cartaghian lands... else... we will pay a visit to you next time and we will take care of them too...

 

[Cuivienen]

Fighting in the forests north of Ancyra has led to the deaths of two Hoplites and a Persian Horseman. GPS.

 

[viper275]

[Gnarfflinger]

I think I sent it on a couple days ago, and I also think I saw something from Yamamoto in the temporary leave thread. On the plus side, I've proved my own existence...

 

[viper275]

Yes, he's gone until Sunday (tomorrow). Thanks for letting me know.
