The "swordsman" rating for light horse seems to depend on how aggressive the subjects were in reality. Scythians get swordsman, and I would suspect the Huns and Mongols will as well. The Seleucid list as an example makes a clear distinction betweens "Scythians" who get swordsman and "other Horse Arc...

I'd reserve "Mob" for really bad (or badly armed) troops. While I don't subscribe to some of the arguments that have been advanced over the years that the Sassanid spearmen were better quality troops (or wore chainmail under their clothing), I do think their performance was adequate enough to warran...

I've been looking at Xyston for a couple of possible Successor armies and their stuff is very nice indeed. They are unfortunately missing one or two key elements for a Pyrrhic army: the Tarentine Cavalry, although it's on their list of upcoming releases, and the later type of Macedonian cavalry with...

I voted 15MM, but to be perfectly honest I play in both scales. I have a large collection of Medieval stuff in 25/28MM so my Medieval armies (Normans, Communal Italian, Early Crusaders, Syrian City States, and Later Hungarian) are all going to be 25/28MM and remain so. Since I'm starting (restarting...

I play mostly historical scenarios, and I don't think I'll have any problem converting any of them to FoG. I'm working on some now in fact. I think the trick is to keep troop types in the same proportion they were in the prototype, and find a convenient number of battle groups that makes the tableto...

If I were an umpire, I certainly wouldn't allow it. The picture that karakhanid posted is downright obnoxious, almost cheating in my mind. I'm very sorry that he encountered such a person. The intent of the rule seems perfectly clear, that each field fortification element be in full contact with one...
