[Romani AAR] It began on seven hills...

[QuintusSertorius]

Aye textbook stuff, and once your troops gain experience after a few battles like this it gets easier and easier.

True, although I don't retrain, so they don't tend to leap ahead too fast or too far in terms of experience. I rarely get into the sliver chevrons territory when merging green units into experienced once. But then with Roman troops that doesn't really matter since they're already pretty good to start with.

Anyway I did get one battle done before I hit a potential technical problem, which meant another battle I'd won had to be abandoned.

T. Claudius Pulcher continued on the punitive expedition into Getic lands. He encountered one of their armies.



The battle took place in an open plain, favouring the Romans ability to maneuver.



The centre of the Getai line was formed entirely with naked warriors. The wings with levy Celtic spearmen.



The Getic chieftain charged.



But after contact he and the entire centre retreated, leaving the Celtic levies to their own devices.



They didn't fight on for long.
