And so twas time for Sparta to invade Thebes on some trumped-up pretext.
The game started out very cagey, with the Spartans sending some galleys along the coast. The Thebans managed to avoid any ranged-fire from the galleys, but they were allowed to beach unopposed and landed their marines.
The Spartans and Thebans slowly approached each other, and then the two sides met, and the Spartans slowly gained the ascendancy through their Reg Sp S hoplites. The Theban strategy of outflanking the Spartans didn't work, and in fact the Spartans were just getting into the Theban rear area when we ran out of time.
Thebes lost roughly 10 ME but Sparta only 0.5 ME, so although no single command reached disheartened, the game was declared a win to the Spartans. Well done Steve A.
