Across The Danube - Roman Dispositions

Here is how the Dacians have set up

The first thing that strikes my eye is that although there are more Dacian units in forward positions on the Dacian left, the two units of cavalry on the right wing could make a swift and formidable attacking force.

Accordingly I have stationed my spearmen - a good anti-cavalry unit - on my left, together with two of my three mounted units

Note that I have positioned the commander so he is within command range (three hexes) of every Roman unit, although this happy state of affairs may not last many turns.

My three units of legionaries are in a line - legionaries receive a bonus (explained later) if adjacent to another unit of legionaries.

Finally, my archers on the extreme right are well-placed to mount higher ground, which will give a bonus when attacking.
