On the left flank, several Taxis of pikemen have withstood the barbarian charge and are now putting the pressure on them. |

Deployment
At dawn's early light Mike and I deployed the terrain for the matchup. The Tuaregs will be attacking the Ptolemaics.

On the Ptolemaic left, Ptike and elepthant anchor on the village. The Medium Infantry run the gamut from Impetuous, 2 handed weapon, to just plain sword.

In the center, more Ptike. The silver shields are elite. And Heavy Cavalry, one is Impact, Elite, the other plain vanilla.

The Tuareg camel corps are each 7 troops, 6 in front, one in reserve. Half are Elite.

It is thought that with Furious Charge, the center command of camel-less troops can fight the Ptike.

The Ptolemaic fit well in the gab between village and field. The Tuaregs are a bit over stuffed.

Ptolemaic lights were in charge reach, prompting a charge. The camels roll long on the pursuit, and slam into the Ptike and Elepthant. One of the Medium Swordsmen is run over, but overall, it was a bad time for the camels.

Ad Hominium's corps also charges, with significantly better luck. (zero wins, zero losses)

I seem to be off my game in photo shooting. I missed the bottom of the 2nd.
pTurn 3:
If you are asking "Why didn't he..."? It was because Mikes command dice seized up.

With unmaneuverable units and short on command points, the Ptolemaic line cannot react to the threats to their flanks. A Taxis of Ptike is flanked and routed. The Tuareg Light Camels, armed as Impact, remain a threat as well. The left corps reserve warrior is called up to pin the Ptike in place.

To a somewhat respectable score of 15.

What went wrong?
A major part has to do with inexperience with impetuous units. I am a control freak. And when running these, I just let them follow their bliss and charge. A bit unfortunate they pursued long and into the Ptike and Eleptant command.
But I don't know what I could have done otherwise. The center was as lined up as it was going to be, and I don't know if another pturn would have mattered. Another pturn would have brought the Ptolemaic camp into charge reach, but it would be pturn 6 before it would have been looted.
