As both comma...Dave,<br /><br />Correct one die per command. <br />As both commands are from the same army you need to designate which command uses the higher score. <br />In this game, the die with the highest score went to both the army’s right wing. <br /><br />Both the Roman right and the Carthaginian left reached demoralization on the same bound resulting in each using their pip score on the following turn to ‘hold’ troops in position. <br />On that same turn, the Carthaginian C-in-C fell in combat which meant any tactical movement in the subsequent bound would require an extra pip. <br />Fortunately, sixes were rolled on both occasions which gave the Carthaginian right some wiggle room. <br /><br />The battle ended with both remaining commands reaching demoralization on the same bound resulting in an inconclusive fight. <br /><br />I do plan to fight day two with reduced numbers for each side and one incapacitated Carthaginian commander as a CP (Command Position). This should be later this week. <br /><br />Cheers, <br />Timurilankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12856114016218310524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1376080001930014422.post-30456203315455749692017-06-13T07:05:36.815-07:002017-06-13T07:05:36.815-07:00Nice report & nice armies as usual.
