The Carthaginians-Iberian army advances towards a boxed-in Roman defence. Is it a solid wall they will meet, or will the mighty war elephants do their job.
A nasty little skirmisher scrum has started on my right, where Carthage looks to have the upper hand. The Romans have been very passive so far but I know what they're capable of.
I'll try to post screenshots but I can never seem to find them. Steam puts them somewhere safe
The Hebrew chariots won the day for me in SYRIA with a 60 - 42 = +18% Victory. My chariots did most of the hard work, while my infantry did their best to lose against @chiquichops 's Phoenician foot.
This once again secures The Levant region for the Yellow Empire.

My Franks manage to repulse @Cargol 's Bretons in NARBONENSIS inflicting a -43% Defeat.
Cargol launched his superior cavalry on a wide flanking march around my right, so I took the chance and charged hard up the centre with my foot -- and it worked much better than expected.
The enemy cavalry arrived in my infantry's back too late to affect the outcome.

That's me to go first -- I'll attack PERSIS from Mesopotamia -- some Diadochi action: Antigonid (320-301 BC) vs Seleucid (320-303 BC) -- @chiquichops -- if ok, challenge is set up.
