eeesh! sorry I said "most DBAers". I guess I should have said "the DBAers I know". I've never seen anyone play on 24". I did it myself a few times on...
From: "Jesse Thorstad" <vingthorr@...> ... Enough room to manoeuvre on a 24x24 board IMO - unless you are very unimaginative that is. Nik Gaukroger ...
Greetings DBA'ers, whereever you are in the world. My name is Karl Farrell and I live just south of Birmingham, England. (Many of you will know that Phil...
My experience was just the opposite of Karl's. I suffered through WRG 3rd through 6th editions because they were the only ancient game in town. I felt the...
My path to ancient gaming would be altogether different. I also have been gaming since at least the 70's, earlier than that if you include just board gaming,...
Well down here in San Antonio, most table sizes are 2x2 for 40mm frontage games. However in the campaign I am running, the defender gets to choose his table...
That sentiment almost matches my situation; I do play BBDBA (mostly with loaners), I think you should try it once in a while. .Your Most Humble and Obedient...
For whatever its worth... I got started in miniatures gaming with Battletech in the mid-90's. From there to Warhammer 40k, tried Warhammer Ancients (wanted to...
... At the end of the DBA rules there is a page on Big Battle DBA -- 36 elements (either a triple, or a double army and an ally according to the allies list in...
That's why I was stressing the fact that one should choose themed armies; it's good to pick armies that fight with and against each other...enemies that can be...
Nice. I will take a look at those rules. Maybe we can do some doubles games if we can drum up the interest. I will have enough for 2-3 (if not more) armies...
... 3d. Re: Newbie Questions ... Salutations, gentlefolk! And a welcome to Mr. Bailey! (Whereabouts do you dwell, by the way?) With regards to Mr. Beattie's...
I would agree 100%, it did answer many questions. That is one of the 'house rule' changes I am going to propose for our DBA group, to determine number of...
Thanks all for posting your wargaming evolutions, they are a fascinating read. I am new to the whole thing (5 years or so I guess). I was a static modeller, I...
Salutations, gentlefolk, Greetings from Lansdowne, Pennsylvania - a bit higher than Darby, a bit lower than Upper Darby, and about two miles outside the...
When we first were looking at FoG, one of our guys got on a DBA forum, and they were just tearing FoG apart. Nothing but griped. As I learn about both, I see...
Hi Bob, Thanks for that very kind invitation. However, Mark and myself are just average players who happen to be able to make the trek to H'Con 09. Greg ... ...
Gentlemen, For the past several years, my collection of DBA and HOTT armies have not been touched. Many of these double or triple sized armies need to make...
I know it's been a while since this was discussed, but I'm just catching up. I was extremely interested to read Phils comments on DBA after playing it at the...
This is somewhat what I was thinking about all this. I started out making my own toy soldiers and painting them as a hobby. A friend of mine told me you could...
*** Reminder - DBA in Fort Wayne, IN this coming Saturday at PentaCon *** *** Experienced players - Feel free to bring a spare early and/or late army. I...
... Assuming a Swiss Chess draw I can only draw the conclusion that Karl was having a bad dice day ;-) As Phil tends to be at the bottom of any comp he...
... No comment..... ;-) but Mark and Greg are two of the very nicest guys you can sit across a board from. Have a great time guys and may you roll sixes.... ...
You will be the best Australian players there. Did you ever win a tournament? Or win a game? Puts you in the middle of the NICT pack:) Bob ... Robert...
