Yep, then after those 5 turns, I always find one of my generals on a boat heading to crete.


I've attacked an all Phalanx Macedonian army of around 15 units. They just sat there while 2 units of Cretain archers reduced each and every one of those 15 units to less than 10 men, one unit at a time.

For some reason, the Macedonians chose this moment to run to my lines, got half way, turned round and routed off.

and there was me, a bit nervouse as to wheather i'd win or not when the battle started.
