Gents; On the melee combat table (pg. 30), are the modifiers done in top- down order? Since they are cumulative, then if a chariot receives a charge at the...
OK guys who's had any thoughts on Dorylaeum? The Franks are easy. However, VB is not the kindest of rules to horse archers. How do we stop the Franks chasing...
Thanks for the reply Mike. I can tell that VB was written without the competition player in mind. Similar to the way WAB was written. Having said that, the...
We held the Vis Bellica: Not A Tournament at Huntingdon last year. That was great fun. I will try to get my backside into gear to stage another one soon. M In...
... Hi I have been thinking about it a lot. First off, I am intending to run it under another set of rules, but I hope that will not exclude me from the ...
Greetings If we can establish a date it might spur me on to (a) buy figures for and (b) paint a VB army in 15mm. I've carefully worked it all out on paper to...

Hi One for you, Chris! What are the H&R Crusaders and Saracens like? I have seen scans of Saracen cavalry and they look a bit dodgy, but images like that can...
... Hi Mike, Just to declare my intentions up front, I have been in conversations with John about trying out the new rule set he's been looking at. The good...
As some of you will have noticed there is currently a problem with the SoA website. This is due to an issue with the .org.uk URL. If you instead go to...
I've not got any Saracens yet though the few H&R ones I've seen look fine. As for Crusaders I think the H&R figures are some of the better cavalry they have...
Gents; Still trying to wrap my arms around the above mentioned concept. If I have a unit with A orders in frontal arc, to my opponents unit with A orders, can...
David 1) Charging In the example you give, both sides would charge (A orders with an enemy in range) and both would count as charging. Let's say only one was...
Simplification is always a good thing :) Aside from that I do feel that veteran and especially elite units are too strong for their cost. For me the basic...

... This is definately true. This is why in the unofficial alternative points system (on the web site) they cost extra. If you are looking to use a points...
... I've got both basic norman knights and some C12 knights on caparisoned horses with heater shields ... I'm sorry but I can't cope with the lack of...
... We actually already use this modified point system at our club (Murphy's Heroes in the Netherlands, same club Peter attends :-) ). We have even extended it...
... Tell me about it. In VM my Dwarves have faced several Empire armies which have similar units (EHC Elite Knights with Lance and shield). Sofar the only way...

... these guys are mean even when they have one 1 point left (+3 charging,+5 elite, +4 lance,+4 knight for a total of +16 and -9 for the enemy from their...
... If they both have A orders, they both charge, there is no counter-charger. Counter-charge is only for units that do not have A orders. ... That is the way...
... We do use the modified points as Dick already mentioned. I've been both on the dishing and receiving end of Elite CO Knights Lance and Elite CO Heavy ...
... Which is why we try to get people to come up with sensible armies in the campaign, rather than whatever can be done using the points system... Cheers, Derk...
