Hi everyone, Hope this is ok to post here... You can see a list of my groups on Grouply at the link below. Maybe you'll find some you want to join. Benoit ...
Having bought Warlord Games new plastic Romans I want to use them using LOTR rules, but cannot think of the best way to use pilum. Assuming javalins etc count...
I've given some thought to it as well recently. I was thinking that the pilum counts as a throwing weapon, when a model with a shield is hit with a pilum...
The +1S does seem to be an easy solution, would you reduce the range to say 4" or only use them if charging? Dave ... thinking that the pilum counts as a...

I'd use it as a straight up throwing weapon even though it had both offensive and defensive uses. I think of how the Romans liked to advance towards the...

I've got slings down as 18" S3, half move loss to shoot. I've never believed that the slings RoF would be twice that of a bow. Dave ... model didn't move. ......
Sounds good to me. It was just an idea that set it apart from a bow. ... From: lotrhithero <lotrhithero@...> Subject: [LOTRvariants]...
... I think that the logic is that a longer range shot takes more time to 'wind up' and aim than a shorter one. That said I have never been convinced either....
Hi Terry, yup WIP :) 1)The Centurion starts with a far superior profile, so even if an Optio took 3 advances and an Centurion none, the Centurion would still...

I have an old copy of the LOTR rules. As in Two Towers boxed set. Are their rules in the stand alone that covers building your own units with point values and...
No, if I understand you right. In any edition of the rulebook there are stats for troops including points values. However there isn't any official published...
There is no published method of designing your own warriors but for basic troops you just need to take a basic statline of Mr. Average, say Rohan warrior and...
Seems fairly reasonable. If I wasn't working on other system conversions (No Quarter/No Limit, WarEngine, Savage Showdown, GOMC1) I would probably try my hand...
... There used to be; in WH40K ed1 there was a points computation system. In Warhammer ed3 Siege there was a mechanism to convert 40K <-> WFB points and stats...
... I started to think some more about the big legionary scutum (and some other stuff). It doesn't seem right that a barbarian with a skinny shield gets the...
When I designed my Late Roman list I had the Romans shields count as Large Shields (like WAB) and add +2 Defense. I thought that was the easiest way to do...
On point 2, about the Romans forming a shield wall for defence. Well, yes they did do that on accasions, but most Roman armies were attacking forces, who, once...
To: LOTRvariants@yahoogroups.com ... It is certainly quick and easy but somehow I hoped for something a bit more special for a combination of the big shield...
