So the first few shots show the players and their secret deployment behind the cardboard wall. It really adds something to the game. The Barbarians stacked the left side of their line with all of the chariots and cavalry that they possesed in hopes of overwhelming the Roman right and rolling up the line. It actually worked!! Eventually!
Some photos!
The massing of the Barbarian mounted arm
Some questions on the Roman side.
Possible concerns in the Roman command?
Actual glee forming with the Barbarian mounted commanders.

Followed by a quick demonstration.
The wall is down let the action begin! Massed Barbarian mounted forces charge forward!

Behind the Roman lines.
Much later in the game the Romans come to grips with the Barbarian host!
The battle winners have broken through on the Roman right and are wheeling around to strike the rear of the unsuspecting Roman infantry!! Who let the dogs out!!
The rear section of the unsuspecting Roman battle line that soon will be hit from behind!
On the Roman left an inconclusive brawl.
The next four photos Brian took on the Roman left as their cavalry probed for weakness in the line.

Impressive wall of Barbarians.
An early game shot from the Roman left.
That's all the photos I have. I failed to show the Barbarian chariots crash into the rear of the Roman line as it was battling foes to its front. This was too much for the line and 8 out of the 16 cohorts were destroyed to end the game in convincing fashion for the Barbarian host!! It was a great game.
Thanks for looking!
