Solomon in All His Glory

The 23rd in my series of themed DBM competitions featured 18 Near Eastern armies dated 1000 to 850 BC. All went well as usual, with numerous chariots and mainly indifferent infantry clashing spectacularly. Gavin Pearson won the competition with his Mannaian army, on a tie-break from the Philistines led by Pete Connew and John Brooker. Ironically, for a competition with this title, the Later Hebrew Army of Solomon finished last! The full results are at Themed Competitions – JGL War Games
