** This thread discusses the Content article: 120 Cynoscephalae (197 BC) **

A very interesting scenario. It seems rather well balanced. It demands skillful play with light infantry holding hills.

While the Macedonians pressed forward in all sections, the Romans drove hard into the center careful to avoid the heavy infantry. The Macedonians had trouble getting the left flank into the fight and the elephant played no role in the battle for the Romans.

The Roman LC unit streaked through the center and almost destroyed a Macedonian infantry unit that had retreated to the baseline. Only luck saved the bold Numidians from destruction.

The Romans won by focused attention in favorable hill battle in the center and left before the Roman left fell back. The Macedonian left was too late to avoid a 6-3 defeat.

I generally think that Expansion one has lots of good scenarios. I know I've played this, but cannot recall how it went. Will have to play it again, before I get my Napoleon pieces
