(or did something change in the current turn? Couldnt look at it)
Basically due to me not knowing that routing isn't determined after each fight he cut off an escape route I figured would be safe.

I lost 16 mages and 100 hoplites in the turn. He's sieging one of my forts too. And your cap ain't under siege anymore. Well, it is, but its just a scout lol. My mages on your side are cornered. If both of you just keep pushing a bit I'm sure you've got me haha.

I still can't believe T'ien'chi went about this the way he did... I mean... Assaulting Arco with traditional armies (90% archers at that!!!). That's insane, its expected I'd have had elephants which would slaughter them and would just trample. I expected his expectation that he didn't have and wen't anti-mage/general army.

Lesson learned. Just mass elephants in the beginning and slowly transition into mages. This game has been a huge boon to my learning that not everyone thinks about elephants from the start.
