Another round of Total War: Arena, this time joined by 
Hive account@hazza1020, bolstering our ranks with another contingent of infantry. This battle was very focused in the very centre of the map. It started with a short standoff with the enemy cavalry trying to tempt me into a charge. They know that Greek shock cavalry is superior on impact however they are counting on the spears moving up behind them to ambush me. I make the decision not to engage which pays off as the spears soon reveal themselves.
The great thing about cavalry is the mobility they afford you on the battle field. Whilst Hive account@hazza1020 holds the left flank I quickly swap to the right to support 
Hive account@mugsy7 while he contests the center. I soon discover a small group of archers hiding in the tall grass on the right and proceed to charge and, in doing so, reveal an entire nest of them scurrying in the woods. I am prompt backed up by 
Hive account@fiskey who mops up any remaining men once I break their morale.
Once the flank is clear we move to secure the center only to have to rush back to defend our base. Some strong teamwork and tactical manouvering allowed us to make relatively short work of our opponents as the broke upon us!
