I am a diehard LH fan and I have to say during my first 15mm game session I didn't really notice the smaller board effect on my manouverability. I was also...
Subject: Re: DBA tourney and painting up armies I agree! Fantastic. You need to put this in a photo folder for others to witness. Now if only my hoplites...
I've posted a few photos I took last night with my newest toy. Unfortunately, the digital camera is not of the highest quality, so I'm still figuring out the...
How about flying Parthians and/or Huns against anyone with lots of heavy troops (e.g. Sarmatians or Successor armies) and watch those Kn/Pk boys try and hunt...

My concern about a further separation is that it diminishes the deployment advantage the invader currently enjoys. The further the distance the invader must...

Terry you are correct it alters the mechanics. It forces the attacker to use his light troops historically to hold enemy forces instead of terrain. It also...
... As tribute from the people they have conquered? :-) I guess my Barkerese, I mean English, isn't parsing right. The NKE of course have Cav/Light Chariots,...
According to DBM you have two options, both of which were 0-2 in the army list. You could have bolt shooters on each end of an ox wagon or you could have...
Torsion stone throwers sound like a superb model idea. fitting one on a 60 x 80 base may be difficult though. I will investigate the type of thing used, I...
I have seen some discussion in the past about how good several troop types are that seem poor to marginal to me. This was no big deal, until I decided to...
... As far as your Nubians go, I would say it was a matter of getting your 2 Warband into the act, using them aggressively, and doubling- or tripling-up your...
With a low aggression and Dry terrain, the Nubians actually look like a very interesting army to run. As I play more DBA (and the DBM leaves my system) I'm...
I do not play DBA that often but I do play occasionally at the US HMGS Cons. At cold wars I used a Mongol conquest army in the asian/stepps backet and acually...
Mike, I ran the Periods event at Cold Wars, and appreciate your feedback regarding the Asian/Steppes bracket and the 32" boards we used. WADBAG will continue...

How do you do this? My understanding is that the defender sets up the terrain, then the invader assigns the numbers 1-6 to the four sides of the board and...

Has anyone tried using a 36"x24" Board for 15mm. We are in the middle of a crusader campaign and when using the standard size board the crusaders seem to have...
a neat trick is to put steep hills in the middle of three edges and some rough in the middle of the other. The invader will probably plump for a steep hills...

Our local group's, bi-weekly DBA Game Nights seem to be steadily growing and attracting new folks, or weaning them from Warhammer. That got me wondering, just...
36 x 24 is the current board size I use, my friend and I find it a hell of a lot more fun than the 2x2. In regards to setup we either do one of two things,...
