Probably as everyone realised that the theme was 'many armies with heavy weapons and crossbows'

I have a game shortly where i will be fielding my venerable LAP army against Alexandrian Macedonian. To be honest i am having trouble coming up with a convincing list or strategy, much of the core of the army seems to be very weak under FoG Can those who are more knowledgeable and experienced sugges...

Battle of Dyrrhachium-iirc Pompey's only victory over Caesar.

Confucious say: "What is this wheel of cheese?" The "If I turn 180, because I move faster/as fast as you I can retire away with impunity as you can never catch me in an IGOUGO ruleset" One wonders what, in an actual battle, the assorted peasant infantry would make of the cream of Korean society and...

So perhaps Red Leicester as opposed to Gorgonzola

In period against all those crossbows and heavy weapons i don't think they have a prayer.

Say it ain't so!

I hav a a Urartian Army that is yet to take the field in FoG; it had very definite Turkey like qualities in DBM. I had hoped it would reprieve itself in the new era

With that and the 'Late Roman' competition armies consisting of numerous units it's beginning to seem like 5th Edition WRG all over again!

How about a rastafarian colour scheme?

Is anyone aware of a source of 15mm African Elephants in their natural state without howdah or crew?

Can anyone suggest suitable 15mm figures for armoured Dailami?

One would like to ask what historical reference you used to accuse the Germans of being of more offensive body odour than your Britons were.

Are Song Chinese infantry HF or MF? I am trying to work out if i need to start planning an extensive basing session.

Can I also put in a plea for an Ostrogothic Ally List; if only as part of an equal opportunities policy for 'special needs' Germanic armies.
