I will have three *NEW* armies to debut on Wednesday: Early Egyptian (I/2a-b), Nubian (I/3), Early Bedouin (I/6a). The Egyptians are a littoral people, but the...
Well done, David. I look forward to seeing them all tonight. I have very little of the reeeely early stuff but I do see that my Donkey Kart boys (Early...
Why did I wait so long to paint my first Samurai? (Too intimated by them, probably.) Well, shoot-- they are great fun to paint. Slow going, sure, but...
... own ... Sounds like a plan. The bedouin are fairly aggressive (3), which is too bad because they fight better on their own turf. I think you'll find that...
A question came up as last night as David and I duked it out with his brand-new and fine-looking Early Egyptians and Nubians. A element of his Egyptian Bows...
Hi This is what I am bringing to sell on Saturday in Tacoma: Painted DBA Armies 15mm 1/50 Lydian (Old Glory figs) 11/31h Hellenistic Greek (Athenian) (Essex...
My new idea for a theme is "Town without Pity: The Art of the BUA." I've only played with a BUA a few times, mostly because I don't have any made up. However,...
Y'know, David, (now, Andy, make sure you're sitting down for this) I agree wholeheartedly. I think that would be a great idea! I had a smoldering feeling for...
If I am to attack a BUA, I want elephants, lots of elephants. Amphibious elephants are best. Are there littoral civilizations with elephants other than...
I suspect Artillery is a handy way of dealing with enemy BUAs, Richard, and, as a segue, the Roman artillery you requested of me was mailed to you, yesterday....

I just purchased an Early Swiss DBA army at the Auction (from our very own Andy Hooper) and although they are gorgeous, the guys with halberds are based 6 on a...
Actually it is the DBM standard. Some armies require double basing for certain troop types for DBM, and that has simply been observed for DBA too. Though...
I used picture matting for my BUA, it works but warps. I'm working on a vineyard today using a thin corrugated cardboard which I hope won't warp. I'm not so...
It looked as if were a goodly number of DBA-related items up for bid at the NHMGS Auction on Saturday. Anybody here come away with any major haul of DBA...
I was curious about the bounds on BUA size and shape, so I did a cursory bit of research. In my copy of DBA (version 2.0, is it still current?) I discerned the...
Are there still any player openings for the Big Battle DBA game at the game Matrix on the 19th. If so I would like to take part. I played my first DBA game Sat...
Tim, glad you had a good time in Andy's "Big Battle DBA" (BBDBA) offerings on Saturday. I hope this won't disappoint you, but there are no BBDBA games...
No, you should not have to re-base them, Arthur. If your Early Swiss sport nine of those unusual, 6Bd elements, each on 40x40 bases with 6 figures per stand,...
Oh, alas! 2.0 is out of date. 2.2 is the current (since Jan 2004). However, the dimensions you cite are still current, though I've always figured the...
That isn't correct, they only recoil 1/2 a base depth, a double base only recoils the depth of the front rank. On Tue, 08 Feb 2005 00:57:36 -0000 "Paul A....
... In DBM, you're correct. However, in DBA they're treated as a single element in all respects so they recoil the full base depth, or the width if less....
With Harbor Storm coming up is there any interested parties in trying to get a warm up game go DBM in before the actual event? I need to shake off the dust...
Hi David: I'm planning to visit Al Rivers tommorrow at his house. Also, I'll be going to the Wednesday night event at Fire and Sword. Regards, Bert ...
Howdy all, I'm just checking in regarding next week, and trying to pin down the Harborstorm activities. I am participating in the Battle of the Americas...
