Today we used 2 new armies, refighting a possible engagement in the Sassanid revolt against the Arsacid (Parthian) empire. It was a very confused and dynamic game, so if you want to see what happened, please go to this link
Enjoy! |

Great report and excellent photos. The game sounds like it had plenty of drama, and your turn-by-turn write-up made it a fun read. I especially liked the historical nod at the end. Looking forward to the replay with the sides reversed. |

Sassanian dynasty took over the Parthian empire so easily! Good dice rolls |

Cheers guys! Indeed, my use of a 'dice jail' seems to have motivated my awful die rolling cubes to behave!!! Historically, I think the Parthian (Arsacid) empire was ripe for destruction due to its organisation and internal strife! |

An absolute corker – period, figures & game are all wonderful. |

Thanks Ochoin! I hope the next game where I will be commanding the Parthians is as good! |
