The July issue of Sligshot is now at the printers and should be with subscribers in the next couple of weeks. To whet the appetite here is the contents page -...
... Very unlikely at this point. DBAOL makes them a (small) income as it is, but it seems that the programmers are uninterested in upgrading it. The ...
My guess is they are doing just fine as is and have no incentive to spend the money to upgrade. They might even be concerned current participation levels...
What incentive do they have for upgrading. People are still willing to pay to play something that they put minimal effort into. They also didn't seem to mind...
Hey Lee, an interesting story. One thing I do not follow, why quit the system, why not just avoid the cheater? Are there not quite a few people to play? ...
... Lee mentioned the CG bug -- CG is "contract group". A sneaky player can use the "contract group" action to massively rearrange his army, so long as they...
I stopped playing DBAOL when I realized how easy it is for one to cheat. I played against one person repeatedly and they always seemed to get "6" or aviod...
If everyone does as described below, then the whole game disintegrates. Terrible program flaw. It's like Kramer on "Seinfield" playing rock paper scissors,...
I have never played DBA Online because I didn't want to confuse myself between the "live" version 2.2 and the "online" version. However, If one wishes to...
Yes, there are several, well-known ways to cheat. That, plus DBAOL's attitude on HOW to deal with cheaters really turned me away from the game. And as to the...
I am trying to play Hot Seat games with the latest version of DBA Online, but I get a message that the DBA Local Server is not running and to use ALT TAB to...
I ran into the same problem in "live" tournaments and chose option "A". That allows me to keep playing in non tournament formats, and avoid the frustration of...
I used to be that way with 7th ed WRG, but the DBA guys that go to the HMGS cons are great guys (except for the outrageous punning, alcohol drinking, ...
Hi All Hey, I thought Ps could group move through bad going in any formation, (ie, not just in colunm formation). Is that so, and if so where in the rules is...
Scott, That is not my understanding. Ps follow the same rules as other units for bad going regarding formation. However, they do get to move their full...
Thanks for the info. Obviously geting my DBA mixed up with my DBM. Cheers ... units for bad going regarding formation. However, they do get to move their full...
So hard to justify best unit comments (re Psilloi). I suspect most gamers would prefer to take a force of Auxilla in bad going against a similar force of...
Nope, not in DBA - the only advantages Ps have is being able to multiple move in the first bound (good fun to mug archers for example... ) other than that -...
All, For the time being, I am getting out of DBA. I find that I just don't have the interest to paint up 15mm armies. I have the following for sale - Essex -...
Guys, Looking for articles for Spearpoint! Historical analysis, After Action Reports from historicon, book reports, pics of various cons, review of army...
All, Forgot to mention that the Roman army includes one scratchbuilt marchinf camp, and one scratchbuilt Villa as a BUA for those rare occassions when the...
Hi everyone, I added two new pages to the GLADBAG section of the HMGS Great Lakes website. They cover our DBA and HOTT tournies we held at Warparty in early...
Great photos! Not sure what that element of winged hussars? was doing in the Later Polish army though...! For the DBA 24 games, you used the 4' x 2' board, but...
Hi everybody - I've just joined the group after rediscovering DBA! As a starter I wonder if anyone out there plays on larger bases than standard. I tend to...
