Hello everyone, I will be running a DBA Tournament at the HMGS-PSW Miniwars convention. The venue is the Boy Scout Hall in Glendale, California (1325 Grandview...
Hi I'm looking to build a 25mm Ugaritic DBA army. But in a bit of a quandry on how to build the three-man, three horse (KN) chariots. Haven't found a supplier...
... It wasn't. The third horse was an outrigger and not yoked. Nik Gaukroger "Never ask a man if he comes from Yorkshire. If he does, he will tell you. If he...
Thanks Nik & Michael, much appreciated. Looks a much simplier conversion now. Cheers Craig McDonald ... yoked to pull. Sort of a spare tire. So conversion...
Hi What's the general concensus out there? Are Big Grey Stampy Things (BGST's) worth the hassel? Sure they are great V mounted, but the pip liability seems to...
Elephants are worth the hassle, if you know what to do with them, and what not to do. Speaking of other types that take two pips to move: Is Artillery (worth...
So that's one vote for "YES, elephants worth the hassel". Cheers ... but if you win with them is is so cool.) What are you going to roll for Pips? If you...
... Very worthwhile IMO - and not much hassle either. Last 2 English DBA Open comps I've used Ghaznavids with all the jumbo's I could have - my record for 12...
... I must admit I tend to play HOTT much more than DBA, where elephants don't typically cost 2 pips to move but do usually cost 4 army-points (twice that of...
They are a mixed emotion unit, you either love playing them or hate them in most cases. I have them in some armies, Later Carthage, Burmese, I do really well...
Elephants are the most powerful elements out there, and can be very difficult to use. If you are good at pip control and matchup alteration by wheeling, they ...
Hi, I'm new to your group. I'm a victim of the 300 movie and now have a bug up my ass for Spartans. I'm thinking about basing up a matched set of Spartans...
Dense basing is a very popular alternative to standard basing to achieve a more realistic look. Filling up 15mm bases with 6mm figures has been described a...
Yes it looks great – I’ve seen hott armies done this way. db ... From: DBA@yahoogroups.com [mailto:DBA@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of xiphos23 Sent: Monday,...
I'll have to play around with it. I figure that I'll just do a matched set so that it'll look right, since most folks don't do basing this way. I'll put up...
Hi gang, Here are the results of the 23rd Wollongong Easter Comp, both events were 6 games. 15mm DBmm Adam Karabalic, Early Imperial Rome (C-C-Claudius), 136 ...
It is always fun to read of tournaments. I wonder how there were so many ties. I say "so many" because in our big cons we seldom have ties. What was the...
HI there, All in one day, games were 1 hour + or – d5 minutes. I think the draws were experienced players not making mistakes or risky attacks – the...
... Elephants very much require resource management skills. Elephants move 3", but cost 2 PIPs. Multiple elements not in the same group are almost impossible...
To me they are; because I enjoy painting them. I find them useful, if tricky, in a game. A single elelphant will become a focus point for the enemy. They have...

Hi, Iam Michael from Berlin, Germany. I am interested in DBA and DBM some time now, but can't find the current and complete rules for DBA and DBM. Everyone I...
Make sure you download the unofficial guide to DBA from the Fanaticus website. If your English is not perfect, it will be difficult to interpret the rules...
I just created a new folder in the "files" section called "A new matchup matrix". It contains a couple PDF files that I hope folks find useful. If you're...
