Spot the mistake!

 

No, it's not that Andy deployed his Achaemenid Persian mounted troops (left of picture) in a bog.  But that James misread the Assyrian army list and deployed a 14 element-strong army!  And neither of us noticed.  And it also made not the slightest difference.

Whilst James raced across the playing area with a succession of sixes on his PIP dice, Andy struggled to extricate himself from the bog with PIP rolls of 1 and 2.

But when it counted, Andy's combat rolls of 5s and 6s crushed James' 1s and 2s.

The Assyrians, distracted by the supposedly easy-to-kill Scythed Chariot (without realising it didn't count towards the break point), were soon minced to pieces, including James' general.  Final score 5-1 to Andy.
