Mithradates on the near side lines up again against his old foes., the Romans.
Lefit of centre the front cohort was getting the worst of it & has fallen back from the Pontic phalanx.
Right of centre, the Pontic allied Warband was dispatched quickly by Romans throwing hot dice.
On the right the Pontic heavy cavalry tried to break the weaker enemy force. Their second line was supposed to cover the left flank of the lead unit, but failed command leaving the cavalry flanked by the Roman foot.
The pontic cavary was broken by the flank attack. The phalanx broke one cohort, but the Roman had plenty more of them. The Pontic army has failed its army morale test.

Good looking game as ever. Shame to see the Mithridatic forces defeated.
He's a larger than life character isn't he? I love the story about the hidden blade in the trousers which he used to slay Ariathes, having joked to the guards who had been sent to search him prior to the meeting!
