Thread: Lol! Battle of Asculum

    Default Lol! Battle of Asculum

    I was playing just now, the historical battle 'Battle of Asculum' where I assumed command as Pyrrhus. After adjusting my forces a little I sent my elephants ahead to mess up the Roman lines just before the clashed into my phalanx, which in turn basically screwed over their offensive since my cavalry alone was superior anyways. It was then when I looked up only to see the Roman general, together with all of the Triarii retreating across the river, as if in full retreat without landing a single blow, leaving the poor cannon fodder to die.

    I actually laughed aloud and thought I should share. Unfortunately no screenshot...PrtScn button isn't working anymore.

    Not even a Pyrrhic victory for old Pyrrhus, just a decisive one!
