In the first playing of Ilipa, Scipio and his Romans received what Chris dubbed a "Hasdrubbing" in a five-player remote game (see A Tale of Two Armies (https://palousewargamingjournal.blogspot.com/2023/08/a-tale-of-two-armies.html)). That game was on 30 August. Flash forward a week later and the two armies are positioned for battle again. This time (06 SEP), I face off against Richard L. in a remote contest. Yes, I actually get to take an active command. Richard chose to take on Hasdrubal's command since he said that, "If I lose, I have managed to repeat history." Richard is a solid and thinking player. I figured I would have my hands full as Scipio in this fight.
