    Default 6 Player Barbarian Invasion

    I thought I should post to show what BI looks like for those who have not seen it before.

    Xavier Dragnesi attacks with armoured camel riders and Sughdian Warriors armed with maces. General Chaos fights back with zeal using his Berbers.

    Cluny hits our right flank hard with his Eastern Roman Rebels using Comitateuses Heavy infantry and Equites Clibinarii heavy calvary.
    KingMuzzle fights back with his famous Francisca Heerban heavy infantry armed with axes.

    For those who never played BI I thought I should highlight the use of Priest used by Cluny and Selifator. By keeping the Priest behind their front line they where able to maintain morale and hold the line.

    Yeah, that was quite an awesome battle. I believe we made history with the first 3v3 BI battle I've ever seen/heard of. Great game to all

    P.S. Jack, the Roman heavy cavalry is called Scholae Palatinae. You might like to change that in your first post.

    Nice to see you guys getting more and more games organized. I could ask some of my mates to join in as we like to play BI from time to time too.

    Hehe, well the original plan between me, Selifator and Cluny was for them to make the front battle line, and me to protect their rear from flanking moves using my heavy cavalry. But GeneralChaos' Berbers moved in en masse from our right, so I had to hammer and anvil all of them. But it was fun overall, to say the least.

    That is the only 3vs3 rtw battle I've done but it was a lot of fun. Something to remember for the future.

    BI is installed and I've signed up. It's actually quite a change in pace from vanilla, I like it.

    Hello, Jacques, haven't seen you around for a while.

    Yes, this was a pretty awesome battle, wasn't it?

    I have been playing Empire. I havn't been lgging on to Xfire much. Sure wouldn't mind some more multiplayer battles with BI or Alexander though.
