DBA EIR Romans vs Early Germans - 'Vindobona'

Well, well, well, we have been away from blogging for a long time now.  What's changed then?  We have just been on holiday touring the south of dear old England in the Fazzy mobile & took in a few historic sites.  Amy & I watched 'Gladiator' so on our return....

The year is 180 AD, the place Vindobona somewhere in the Germanic lands.  Amy takes the role of Maximus & the jolly Romans.  Yours truly takes the great unwashed horde of German Barbarians.  A nice slugfest to get back into DBA...  The Romans army comprises of 2 Cavalry, 4 blades, 4 Aux, 1 Bow & 1 Artillery.  The Germans 11 Warband & 1 Psiloi.. Simples!
