E.B multiplayer AAr thread

[Pharnakes]

I didn't use the right kind of army or the right kind of moves to beat his phalanxes, but I bear no grudge, it's the first time I played EB online and I would like to try again... and by the way, not all those corpses are Parthians, some are seleucids actually.

Yes true enough, cataphracts can be messy when they charge into a diorganised mass of depleted and exhausetd phalagnites...

And all of the corpses on the bridge are mine.(then he ran out of arrows) thank Ares for incompetent logistics

I like the one Pezhetairos walking away. I can imagine this smug look on his face as he thinks to himself, Yup, my job is done here.

Hi, guys, a few pics of my ignominious defeat at the hands of easternscourge:

more to follow but I got to go now


Edit here are the rest


Pontic chariots chrashing into the back of Babylonian heavy spearmen:[img=https://img209.imageshack.us/img209/7255/uhyza5.jpg]


And finnaly, the hopless last charge of the prodromoi:[img=https://img209.imageshack.us/img209/8405/yjyyjjpx4.jpg]


A few thoughts about the battle: Strangely, my chariots absolutley butchered his cataphracts, (even his generals gripanvar), but got hoplessley cut to peices by his heavy infantry, even though they were charging into the back of them. I thought that in E.B. chariots were suposed to be very disadvantaged against cavalry and a their best when fighting densely packed heavy infantry armed with swords. Ironicaly, I could probably have won using the prodromoi in the last picture, but I used them to chase off some horse archers, then forgot all about them
