Defending Hadrian's Wall - Total War: Arena

The time has come to defend Hadrian's wall! @fiskey, @hazza1020 and I field the cavalry and @mugsy7 brings his warhounds. All highly mobile units well suited to dominate the rolling hills and open fields that suround Hadrian's wall.

The battle begins with us trying to find prime position to smother the enemy at choke points however we realise shortly that the right flank has blind spot and some cavalry has breached the line. They now ride unapposed towards our siege equipment. @mugsy7 and I attempt to cut them off. We take a few but the rest escape. A quick detour through the fort and I manage to cut them off and hold them in place until backup arrives.

More cavalry, this time from the centre, and again! @mugsy7 takes the brunt of the first charge and @hazza1020 saves my flank from a second as I attempt to cut off the first.

We pick out moment and charge through the gap, defeating their slingers and more horse while out siege lands some well timed strikes. A few more sketchy moments and we manage to win the day!
