I made it, Tylis is mine.![]()
I started to besiege the town once again. Next turn I was attacked by a Thracian army coming from outside (500men, no general, only some jav horses). The garisson (500men with two generals) didn't dare to join the attack. So my units (1 chief, 4 bowmen, 1 phalanx and 6 horse archers in total 1000men and 600 horses) had no problems. Silly Thracian attacked even though they were outnumbered. Tried to hide behind shields and armors. My arrows made them die like flies. I lost 6 men, they lost more than 400!!
Even though the Dracian send two armies (only three units each) to threaden Geten and Sctythi I now attacked Tylis. I used the phalanx as a shiel in front of my archers. 4 units of archers made uge demage in the rows of the Thracian falxmen. They even killed one general. However, the falxmen finally succeeded in killing the phalanx _ their attack was stopped by my archers. The last Thraccian general tried to defend the centre. My archers weakened him and my chief killed the running rest. Unfortunatelly, my chief died in this last attack.
I killed everone inside the town. Now I am filling my army again and will then go for Byzantium. I will also attack the Dacians. Looks like our gods send them to feed our arrows.
