A little battle history:

Fatmids vs Seljuk turks of Iconium

The Fatimids, sure of the win, deploy only three units of cavalry, consisting in Beduin cavalrymen(very weak ones), Al alqa and Ghulam, the best eastern cavalry; The Seljuk turks deploy a big number of cavalrymen because of their abilty to ride horses.

The Ghulam cavalrymen are ready to fight in the name of the Caliph and of Allah against those stupid Sunnites of the turks.



The turks moved all their cavalry towards the right flank of the Fatmids but the Ghulam cavalrymen charge them and it seemed they were able to kill all the turkish askaris.



But the Aghulans and the turcoman light cavalrymen ducked the Ghulams and tryed to reach the Fatimid infantry; fortunately the Al alqua and the beduin cavalrymen, arrived from the left flank, charged the turks and it seemed they were able to win.



The battle was only between the two cavalries; the infantries were still far away.



The Al alqua and the beduin cavalrymen had been defeated by the Aghulans and the turcoman light cavalrymen and started to ran away; only the ghulams were stil fighting but they started to be sorrounded by the enemies.



At the same time the turkish infantry, so the ghazi warriors, the Anatolian spearmen and the turcoman infantrimen charged the egyptian infantry line, trying to break it; but the Daylami and the other Fatimid soldiers were able to defeat the turks, but...



...the Ghulams had been totally defeated and the turkish cavalry, charged the rear part of the Fatimid army and all teh egyptians ran away.

[Cyrus the Virus]

Really good, nice job on the shield. :wink:

[Zenith Darksea]

Are you sure that they'd have big icons of St Andrew on their shields? Otherwise, the Archontopouloi look very good.

[dragases1453]

usually they had the icon of saint Demetrius(almost in the european part of the empire) but also saint andrew's one(almost in the asian part)

[Nikephoros]

well, consider they'll have a cataphracted horse (and hopefully a golden one. We don't save on horses )

[dragases1453]

A small update:

Hungarian Nobles(they'll be mounted on a horse obviously):

[Nikephoros]

A "little" battle story.
Byzantines vs. Armenians

the cataphracts are going towards the armenian army to start skirmishing




while the azaks cavalry is riding to flank the byzantine army...


but a combined effort of the general and his akrotonpouli prevent the romans to be outflanked.
The eagle and the lion are clashing, once again.




but the infantry is getting closer to the centre. The psiloi are ready.


and so are the greek fire throwers!


well, for tonight that's all. More screenshots tomorrow

[Nikephoros]

the battle goes on...








but some accident halways happens while playing with the fireworks...


Finally, the last armenian resistance is broken.



the day is ours. Now, what's left of the cavalry is hunting down what's left of the rupenid army.


that's all folks!

[Bda4]

wow

[GiantMonkeyMan]
