Hi, One of the interesting changes in DBA 2.2, compared to 1.1, is the introduction of a defined stand type for generals. For some armies it makes perfect...
... This, surely, is an issue with this particular list, not the 2.2 changes as such - plenty other lists offer a choice between a mounted or foot general,...
... The Marian List, like the Post Mongolian Samurai, allows the general to be on foot. However, with only two cavalry stands if you take the option of a...
Seems like Andreas' suggestion is perfect a Blade General and Cav plus Cav (total of 2) and 5 Bd (still total of 6Bd) or a Cav gen and a Blade, plus Cav...
I rather like the HOTT approach of the player choosing his general. Alexander chose to ride with his Companions. But Caesar often chose to dismount and fight...

Hello, Haven't played DBA in a while and wanted to get back into it. Noticed the "DeBellieSimpliticus.pdf" file, and thought it looked really nice. Cheers to...
