    Terrific use of Horse archers, hemmed in between right flank and the river
    Guess they thought their companions would beat the entire enemy army. Did they move their infantry at all?

    I think they spent most of the time trying the reform the phalanxes and then they eventually mved up. They didn't really get very far

    Most amusing to see one mounted horse leap from a standing start over the horse and rider in front to get into the fray. Is this an early version of the R:TW engine? That act looked totally unbelievable.

    i think they failed cos the new show format doesnt really allow you to learn anything about ur units strengths and weaknesses. the 2 questions thing is crap! they should have a rethink about this.

    I agree. They should give all teams a quick battle tutorial or something. Most of them have no idea what they are doing.

    they should just change it back to the old system for the battles, get rid of the pauses, scout out the enemy army before hand, learn about key troops strengths/weaknesses. Keep the pre-battle skirmish though, thats the best new feature.

    They played MTW before hand which is similar but then there are problems with using it (they underestimated the Elephants last week)
