[spoiler=Introduction]Thousands of years ago our ancestors warred frequently, their battles were more tribal brawls though. Mob set upon mob with axe and spear in disorganised fury.
In time more sophisticated military tactics were evolved, one of which being the well disciplined phalanx. In close order well drilled troops marched in line, shields overlapped, spears thrust overhead with cold precision, the phalanx was a well oiled killing machine.
So bring your quads team, and on maps fitting the occasion let us separate the undisciplined mobs from the disciplined phalanxes of CC.[/spoiler]
Maps ::
Round 1; Ancient Greece
Round 2; Imperium Romanum
Round 3; Peloponnesian War

Small note; This instalment is a copy of Lethal Phalanx I, in all aspects except that the final will be foggy this time, an oversight of mine last tourney, one which I felt I couldn't change once the tourney had started. As Xmas is coming we'll keep the small format this time, but for Lethal Phalanx III another round will be added, probably on Alexander's Empire, and thus another 8 teams.
Lethal Phalanx I Winners: [player]Commander62890[/player], [player]Jackal31[/player], [player]Zips5000[/player], [player]Dustine[/player]
