I am all for shooting "entirely behind" instead of "entirely on". Congratulations to you for moving us forward toward that goal. I am, however, amused by...
Bob fantastic news, thanks for getting this sorted out. The response does raise another strange paradox.... ... What does that mean!¬!! If you're facing two...
The Rule (p10): "These can shoot at any 1 enemy element edge, which is within...[goes on to define arc of fire]" It that doesn't indicate the shooter can...
As I have been reading Phil's points over a few times, it strikes me that his first point, of choosing target edge, has no impact on play as long as the rear...
Since you ask, here is Phil's last comment on the question Terry mentions. I have written to him to ask how we get this from the rules and what to do when the...

So, if I understand what Phil is saying AND if we define "contacting" to mean edges just touching after a full recoil, then "contacting" friends will not...
Thanks again for all who helped me with my Seljuk Problems. I am now collecting a new army, but I have run into a puzzle regarding the III/65 Fatimid 3 x 8Bw. ...

Hi ... They should not be in the list at all. These are supposed to be the 'abid al-shira of the DBM-list vintage. My recent Slingshot article assembles much...

Someone on this thread lamented lack of new research making it into the DBA lists. The DBA lists are (currently, and probably for the foreseeable future) a...
Thanks for that good advice. What is the discussion about the DBM lists being redone for DBMM? Maybe then joint DBA/DBMM lists. I would not suspect a new...
Hi All, I have a couple of questions. 1) Under the types of compulsory features ARABLE is down as having "BUA or Road". Fine, so I can have one or the other,...
The word "or" means you can have only one of the two choices, road OR BUA. You can however choose a BUA and then a Road as an optional feature. While...
