For Christmas, I asked for (and should receive) a 15mm Wars of the Roses army which I plan to paint and base as a Yorkist army for Basic Impetus. I plan to...
I have a 300pts Yorkist army in 28mm. Most of the bases are a mix of liveries (real or fictional, I mean a red and white can represent many nobles as none). In...
I've for W ot R in 28mm which are singly based and can be ranked up for Basic Impetus. Since painting them I am really regretting doing 16 figure units all in ...
The ranges and factors, and effectiveness, are quite different and I'm wondering why - the shooting of light missile troops seems quite weak in basic. Any...
With Basic Impetus you play on a less deep board. With 15mm figures the standard should be a 120x60cm board. Troops deploy close enough. In Impetus the depth...
Thanks, Lorenzo for those points - reading the full rules I missed the CT modifier and wasn't really thinking about rallying disorder and turns of shooting. I...
I have a question. I can not find a answer in Basic and full will not get in my greedy hands till the 25th. Say I have a unit of a VBU of 6 and a imp of 3. I...
yes it is correct. When you get a loss your VBU drops by 1. Or drops by 2 or 3 or more according to your Coehesion Test. A Unit with a VBU=6 and I=3 rolls 9...
A Christmas gift to all Impetus players: 17 new beta lists!! These are: Early Achemenid Persians Maurya IndiansSyracuse Western Huns (Steppes) Attila's Huns...

Hi I've posted some pictures of my two armies, hope you like them. Played 10 games so far, like the way rules play, six wins to the early Saxons and 4 to the...
Hi Mark, why not to send me for the gallery in Impetus web site? Which manufacturer? Lorenzo ... From: flashingbladefigs To: IMPETVS@yahoogroups.com Sent:...
Excellent work! (Especially on the Huns & Avars) ... Cheers Paul ... (Steppes) Attila's Huns White Huns (Hephthalites) Early Ostroghotic Arab Conquest Charles...
Anyone doing this? I've been mounting a bunch of 25 mm figures I've got (12 infantry to a 12 cm x 6 cm stand). Looks sharp. Pictures soon. Talk to me if you...
Hi Dan, I am interested. I have some baccus 6mm that I will be mounting on 60mmX30mm bases. No rules to go with these. I've read through a copy of Polemos...
OK, with Basic Impetus it was 'How do you win with Barbarians'. With Impetus it is 'How do you win AGAINST Barbarians'. A few things to check that I have it...
In Impetus Warband armies are stronger than in BI due to their size (more troops), but suffer more their poor discipline and poor Command Structure. Out of 10U...
Very open indeed! I recently beat (just!) a Gallic army with my EIR, but it really was a last-dice affair...  Disordering the barbarian battle line, as...
It certainly makes for a good game! It's nice that Warband can win in the open and don't have to skulk about in woods. I was playing at 500 points, and was...
Hi All I have just read the BI rules and they look good. I have a couple of questions and observations if any would be so kind. Q1. Are Ele rated as mounted...
Hi Mick 1. Yes, Elephants are considered mounted troops 2. Elephants are not impetuous and can form groups with other mounted units (yes I know it is too...
... many thanks Lorenzo regards mick ... mounted units (yes I know it is too generous, in Impetus they cannot) ... movement bonus (and you have to roll one by...
Is there a planned campaign system for Impetus? What are other people using now? Does anyone have house rules for weather, and other fun things? Happy 2009...
Hi Everyone, I'm new to the mailing list. I am painting Roman line troops, and I've come up with a question. Are most players adding their general models to...
Hi Jet, I base my commands separately (40mm x 40mm base in 15mm) and then associate them to a unit, as a 'marker', to indicate the command unit. Benefits:Â it...
