Manlii v Julii Games 1 to 4

For our first campaign I have chosen the Manlii gens and Gordon the Julii. I have summarised below the first four games that we played,they are in summary form only as I only thought about doing a blog of the campaign after we had already fought them. I did take pictures of the end position of each at the very least, and Gordon has also commented on each one. 

From game five I will produce a report on each as they happen.
