Hi guys, new here. I am eager to give the Crusader rules a try. I was pointed this way in search of army lists and sure enough there are lots in the files ...
Hi James, I am not sure there is a "correct" answer here. The rules don't have a hard and fast scale so that they can be all things to all people. 6 stands...
... you count those six stands as a cohort, then I agree. Maybe say a unit is 1/4 of a legion. So 4 units is a whole legion...or 24 stands. That's only 100...
... You might consider 10mm figures mounted on 30mm square bases, 8 heavy infantry figures to a base, 3 Cav figures to a base.< ah, John, if only I could see...
I'm building a crusader period army and there will be dismounted knights ( lack of horse) as well as spear. Should I group these seperately or mix ? Your...
... Personally I would mix the knights in with the foot units. I am not sure if that is historically accurate (although I suspect it is), but it helps "jazz...

Hi guys, I am still trying to get some idea of roughly what size of armies most folks are playing these Crusader rules with in 28mm. Is it say 50-100 minis or...
based on my limited experience, I would think 6 units of an average size of 6 stands would be a good sized army. Average number of figures per stand is 3 (4...
Thanks John that did help. I am thinking 6 units would be the minimum as that might be a little "tight" if one had to represent an army with a lot of different...
Hi I have just bought the Crusader rules and dont really want to chop the back page out of the book - I read somewhere that the QRF was available to download -...
... You can derive the ground scale by comparing the missile ranges in the game with their historical ranges. This gives roughly 1 inch = 10 metres. You can...
Hi Lawrence, thanks for your reply. I confess I do get itchy when people talk about a ground scale/ratio for 28mm. IMO you can only get a realistic ground...
Hi, Are there any events being held for the end of this year? I am still slowly building up my force and would like to look at some tournament play. What kinda...
