@@muhammetmantu276 Can't disagree with you, Mantu. SCs positioning and surge attack was as epic as it was impressive. With that said, we really miss your presence on RTW. I'm sure I speak on behalf of all of BH members when I say that we really miss you and hope to have you back on RTW soon.

Hi SC First of all thanks for the upload. 12:30 just to explain my testudo shenanigans: if you look closely my formation before and after the testudo is diffrent. its a little trick i do sometimes. my formation is much tighter after i came out of testudo. it gives my troops better stand ground abilities if i want to protect a certain spot. greetings -8-

I've been playing this game with BH and friends for approximately a year now, and this is one of the most interesting battles I've seen so far. Nice, aggressive manouver by Skem at the beginning of the battle, followed by a delicate, tactical retreat to rendezvous with SC and Tabor. There were several critical and pivotal moments in this battle that turned the tide of the battle in our favour. First of all, I was surprised by Lando's decision to walk his troops all the way to the main battle area. From my experience, Lando's main strenght lies in his ability to attack his opponents quickly and aggressively, forcing them to make fatal errors. Had he been in the main battle aera sooner rather than later, his team would have had a clear advantage, given their already favorable tactical positioning. Secondly, at ca. 20:10 into the battle, with the enemy's overwhelming cavalry advantage on our left flank, they could have easily amassed a combined and devestating cavalry charge on SC. Again, had Lando been there sooner, they could have combined that with a full, frontal infantry charge as well. Alternatively, and lastly, at ca. 31:20 min into the battle and after winning the cavalry battle, the enemy should have immidiately followed up with a combined cavalry charge on our rear. That would most definitely have caused most of our units to route and handed the victory to the enemy team. But for some reason they decided to chase the routing cavalry and archers. This gave us just about enough time to conclude the battle with a hammer and anvil attack that routed most of the enemy infantry. I would also like to point out that much of the reason that we won the infantry battle was that Skem did well in communicating clear iminstructions and orders, which made it easier for us to play more like a team. Well done, Skem! Another fun and exciting game with excellent players that bring a big dimension to this ever so timeless game that we all love so dearly. WP all. GG all.
