This is another game in play testing my ancient rules by replaying historical battles. This one is the Battle of Dertosa. I am play testing the rules by chronologically replaying all the Peter Sides scenarios from his Historical Battles books.

I have been slow in play testing these rules for the last few years. For November 2019 I set myself a challenge to play the 10 First and Second Punic Wars battles from the book. This battle is game 5 in the attempt. I am on track to finish at the end of November, or shortly after anyway. The important thing was to try and get 10 games in.

The battle report is here:

And here is a shot of the Roman left flank cavalry melee:
