In recent weeks, I have supported suggestions that we address some persistent 'bad habits' in Armati play ... the corner hugging, the 'one flank' syndrome, the...
Some good points Phil. It seems to me that the issue of cavalry/ flank based victories is not that they are historically unsound, but that they happen too...

I am more and more liking the two suggestions that: a) HC which move more that 12" gain a fatigue point (which can be rallied off in the usual manner); and: b)...
Oddly enough when A2 came out I played for a couple of months before I realised that exhausted HC still made HI fight with Flank factors if they contacted a...
Enter your vote today! A new poll has been created for the ARMATI group: Should HC/CATS/KNS that move 12" or more gain a fatigue point which can be rallied...

I wish I could explain all the nuances of ancient armies, Roy (:o)...) I think it _is clear that the depth of the phalanx is varied in order to avoid being...

It was a difficult argument to follow and had some good input. I did mail earlier with a further adjustment but this seems to have arrived just ahead of the...
I'm not too concerned about the speed of cavalry, I am concerned that if we start mucking about with cavalry speed (including fatigue for using cavalry's...
*Sigh* I try to slow exactly what you describe here and I get jumped on. I try to come at the matter from the other side by helping pat the prose together and...
I find it rather heartening that the biggest line so far is saying no change is needed at all to HC etc. Perhaps I have not been as isolated as some would have...

A good point wittily put Steve. Armati has enough millimetre movement at the moment, working out whether a unit has moved its full move or not is going to be...
