NO, no, I agree with you - Different grading for different classes should by extended to the Etruscans - I'm just saying in reality they are all levy, but of...
... Probably right - armies should be graded against their contemporaries. There should be veterans and elites in 5th Century BC Italy, and not just in Rome....
Hi Chris, Well, I'm planning to. I just got the rules a few weeks ago, but I like them. As far as I know, my VB set is the only one in Finland so far :( (Even...

Although I received these figures a couple of weeks back, I didn't have time to give the proper attention until yesterday, and I thought I'd give a general...
... I've no real problem with all the troops for that period being classed as levy. Reading my Livy, they all look as bad as one another. The Romans seemed to ...

Hi John, OK. The answer is: it depends. Not actually that helpful but that's what it boils down to. Wherever you went in Medieval Britain you saw different...
hi That is a really interesting point about woods - I will be sure to bring this out in my terrain in the future! As for location of my battles, I guess I am...
Hi I was wondering what UK shows people out there go to. I was thinking that maybe next year there might be the chance of meeting up for a beer or quick game....
