The war wagon for the army you mention is intended to depict a standard-wagon, present at the so-called "Battle of the Standards," which happened somewhere up...
In response to a question on this, Phil said Anglo-Norman armies had other standard wagons, even though only one was at the battle of the standard. Bob Beattie...
Does anyone have even minimal knowledge of what would compose the Norman armies that tussled with the Byzantines in the Balkans before the 1st Crusade? The DBM...
I am reading about 3 books right now on the Normans of Southern Italy and Sicily et al. I am just getting to that era. A few things I learned so far include...
Am I correct in saying all "first moves" by any element must be completed before any second/subsequent moves take place? For example, if a Wb element needs a...
What? Move the sequence Wb-Wb-Ps? Certainly. Nothing I know of in the rules prevents it. You move elements in the order you, as bounding player, select. Same...
As far as I know you could move Ps-Wb-Wb, Wb-Wb-Ps, or Wb-Ps-Wb, as long as you had the pips and each move was a legal tactical move at the time you made it. ...

Others have answered quite well the question of "move sequence." I wonder about the second part of the question. An element cannot move into corner to corner...
Even more to the point, those 3 Indian elephants of Simon's currently on the Fanaticus home page, are quite simply, spectacular; especially the blanket...
Thanks to all who have responded on this. I am now the wiser for it. Bob; yes, I agree, the Ps-Wb-Wb or Wb-Ps-Wb would not provide a legal overlap here, hence...

A lot of the DBA lists opted to force the PS option in the PS or Bw-i from the DBM lists. I agree it is unfortunate. Balkan Slavs are the Early Slav III/1...
