Belisarius quickly plugs the hole on his right flank before heading left to rack up some more rout points. ("That's piling on!" shouts the Persian herald, "ten yard penalty and restart the Activation!" But the gods are unmoved.)
The four remaining units on the Persian left are each attacked. Sunicas removes the LN in the rear via shock, while arrows rout another LN, kill an LI, and whiff entirely versus another LN.
Belisarius tries for Momentum. In SPQR that would be dangerous because of the small chance of reactivating an enemy leader. But in this game he faces nothing more dangerous than the Persians rolling their eyeballs skyward. The die is kind and Belisarius gets to continue to mop up.
