... Did you treat the Elephants as mounted charge? Did you do the fear of elephant morale check? Elephants regularly chew through my Elite Roman Infantry. I...
Luck mostly! In fact Elephants are a gimmick weapon. Like scythe chariots, they are a fire and forget missile. What you hope is that when they rout, they...

To make it a little more interesting, instead of the elephants only going north, south, east or west, throw out a directional die and let them run any which...
Historically elephants tended to be used against cavalry on the grounds that horses not used to the smell and appearance of the pachyderms would be frightened....
Unfortuneately cavalry do'nt suffer disorder in MOA and do'nt seem to win in melee, they only come into their own when they rout !!!!. We will try counting the...

Gents or Bob, May a leader be attached to more than one unit if the leader stand is in base-to-base contact with more than one? If so, it would certainly ...
Without checking the rules, I'm fairly certain that whether a leader can be attached to both units at the same time is not spelled out. My intention was that a...
Bob, That's not the answer I was looking for :) When Romans are charged by fierce gauls they need as much Morale check support as possible :) Thanks for the...
Speaking of leaders, is anyone going to get bent out of shape if I put all my leaders on round bases? This is to counter the occasional need for some folks to ...

Good post Bryan. :<) If I had to deal with unscrupulous players (cheating rat bastards?), my enjoyment of the game would suffer too! Thankfully, we don't have...
Bryan I see what you're saying. If you did have a massive leader base and attach to multiple units, you'd have to take a wound check each time the conditions...
Given that the point of attaching the leader is that he is "leading from the front" I would have a pretty tough time accepting the concept that a leader can be...
Mike I agree with your premise but not your conclusion. I in agreement with the leader placing himself at risk "in the front" The question remains how many...
