As mentioned in my last post this is the solo Coronea CCA game I played last Sunday afternoon. This was a much closer game and the Greeks enjoyed early success in the centre and were actually leading the game at one point 3-0. They were greatly hampered by poor cards, the double strength Thebans, the most resilient Greek unit, didn't actually fight in the whole game. In the end the Spartan right flank wiped out the entire Greek left flank to win a hard fought game 6-3 victory points.
