Gents,

Courtesy of the administrator over at the Lone Warrior Blog, my AAR about a fictional contest between Alexander and Porus is now available for reading and remarking upon.

Here is the link: PDF link

Thanks for taking the time to read. Thanks for taking the time to comment.

Fascinating – thanks for sharing.

I think making up a set of deployment plans for each side and rolling dice to determine which is used would be good, if none of the plans are too extreme. Nice AAR.

Chris,

It does sound like is was an enjoyable game. Just because is was wall to wall troops, it still played out in an interesting way. And the included pictures helped with the narrative.

My offer is still open to perform deployment for a battle of yours.

Gentlemen,

Thanks for taking the time to click on the link, to read, and to remark.
Your feedback is very much appreciated.

Regards,

Chris

p.s. Presently involved in a large battle wherein New Kingdom Egyptians are taking on New Babylonians. Using Armati 2nd Edition – RAW.

Chris,

I played Armati 2 exactly by the book for 4 years before I finally took the plunge and tinkered a little with it.
