Gaber-Ghaznavids (III/62b)
Hay-Polybian Romans (II/33)

1st Match - Gaber
The Ghaznavids advanced in some disorder, but were able to form a
strong line and attack the Roman left flank, killing the Roman
General.

2nd Match - Hay
The Ghaznavids came out with 3 Elephants, which made things
interesting. The Romans were able to attack the Ghaznavid foot
inflicting 2 casualties, but the Elephants crashed into the other
flank, killing the Roman General and a Spear. The Romans were saved
when the remaining spear supported by a psiloi was able to attack an
Elephant in the flank. The Elephant was forced to recoil into the
other elephant, killing both.

3rd Match - Hay
Romans advanced along a broad line and met the Ghaznavids in the
middle of the field. One elephant was forced to recoil, and
recoiled into another elephant, killing both. Then the Romans
advanced against the other flank which was mostly Cav. The Roman
Blade wall stood firm against the cavalry, and the Roman cavalry
survived a flanking attack. Then the Romans counter-attacked, and
the Ghaznavid line collapsed.
