I have set up a new yahoo group for getting figures created for the Italian Wars that are not already available. These would be Swiss for the Italian Wars. The...
In the rules I believe bombards fall into the "artillery" classification. However, in a recent WOTR's game a bombard was moved in one turn then fired the next....
Pete, My recommendation is to define bombards as immobile artillery, which cannot move after they are "emplaced" or deployed. This would cover any heavy...
Pete, Perry is correct. Found this to help in your argument with fellow members. A bombard is a type of medieval cannon or mortar, used chiefly in sieges for...
If you have ever considered gaming Samurai vrs mongols in 28mm or 10th- 14th Century Samurai Civil wars, please consider these figures. I have added 28mm...
I have transferred all of the QRS for the various rulebooks to the QRS folder in the Files section. These include AW, MW, RW, LW, NW and FW. I shall be adding...
Saga 116 (December 2008) was late getting to the printer for various reasons, primarily preoccupation with other priorities. The next newsletter will be ready...
Hi Perry, I just had a look at the FW QRS. Doesn't seem any different to MW? There's no mention of magic in the turn sequence and nothing about monsters, etc...
Graham, You are correct that there is little to distinguish the FW from the MW QRS. This will change as I modify the charts. FW is in the playtesting phase...
Hello, I am looking for some 15mm early medieval figures. Have not found them yet so I asking the group if anyone had seen these types of figures. Monk...
Try Peter Pig's fantasy Arabs for Imams. There are some possibly suitable figures. I also have the Museum figures which are reasonable regular clergy (i.e. ...
I am surprised that no one has chimed in to answer this! There are 4 crewmen in a Heavy Bombard. Check out page 113, the bottom of the "after 1400" list for...
My response ended up in a black hole. This happens occasionally. There are basically two types of gunpowder artillery used in MW. The first are immobile guns...
only close order infantry go low of ammo and out of ammo or any unit with shoot weapons? Cavalry, skirmish and loose order foot don't go low and out of ammo? ...
Any unit that is armed with a missile weapon can suffer either a "low on ammo" or "out of ammo". In MW, a unit that uses "Arrow Barrage" will immediately...
Hello all Especially Mitch, Bruce, Perry, Jeff, Dobbs and Jevon is you are still around. I intend to make Historicon this year. Have not played since 2002 so I...
Hi Jamie Nice to hear from you again, so far I'm planning on attending Historicon. I may even put on a game or two. Regards Paul Dobbins aka herkos_akhaion...
Hey Dobbs Yeah, Jeff said there maybe a 25 AW tourney Which fer me means Indians Might just come up and play in organized games and sell stuff It will be great...
We begin to play Saga games and friday night we play Mons Badonicus, I have 4 questions: 1) With advance order a unit begin a melee? obviously without charge...
Berthier, I have four answers: 1) Yes, you can advance into melee. 2) Yes, warband gets +2 for Fanatic and +2 for frenzied foot in the 1st round. 3)...
Berthier, Sorry for the delay in responding. I needed to get my rulebook back from a friend. In answer to your questions: Units with Advance orders must move...
Hi, 1. Yes, you can advance into contact without the need for a charge order or its benefits. Given that you're refighting Mount Badon, the Saxons would be ...
It is apparent that there are some differences between the MW published by Foundry in the UK and the older version published by Saga in the USA. I do not...
I have sent the draft copy to Bruce for his final approval. Hopefully it will be ready for distribution next week. Sorry for the delay and I do plan to have...
