Re:Peltasts and Hoplites (was lots of stuff)

Luke

Know the story. WRG 7th took me away from ancients wargaming and
family responsabilities took me away from wargaming altopgether from
about 1991. I really only came back 2 years ago, so I started with
3.0. I believe that 3.1 solves many of the 3.0 problems (though it
neuturs my Swiss Bd(X)), well worth trying I believe. Specifically
it solves some of the HI vs skirmisher interaction problems, and the
zone of death being base depth rather than width makes deep Pk more
viable.

I finally joined the SoA a year or 2 back, so I look forwards to
seeing your ideas developed in Slingshot.

Basing figures is a good sign.

Regards
Tim

It seems to be my day to wind Duncan up :-) Actually I was being a little silly... I remember reading whole chapters on this subject in Classical Warfare...
