Asculum 279 BC - This length scenario covers both days of the battle. On day one, Pyrrhus' army fought the Romans in wooded and hilly terrain, more suited to light troops than his cumbersome pike phalanx. Historically, his light troops were able to move forward to secure the difficult terrain prior to the second day's battle, which took place on the open plain. (72 turns, 37,500 pts a side)
