There is no restriction on allies.

So yes, Armenian allies are allowed.

Re: Campaign 10/11 May 2025 - Milton Keynes

Couple of clarifications on the Neo-Hittite list:

The Aramean Spearmen are 6 points in the main list and 5 points in the allies?
>> The rules always take precedence - so 6pts is correct.

They also have a total of 6-40 bases and 12-64 bases on the same line? Which one is it ?
>> use 12-64

Field of Glory II Bundle

I've just purchased the Field of Glory II Bundle.

I've downloaded the file, but it is only 1kb and when I open the zip file it tells me that its not a valid archive?

How do I get a proper download? All of the 6 supplements are valid executables.

Re: Warband underpowered

Martin, It's a fair point well made.

The issue is that warband are very good against some opponents that they historically didn't fight overly much - I'm thinking of the likes of bowmen, spearmen, non-shock cavalry and some others.

So whilst they may appear over-pointed against some of their ...

Re: Warband underpowered

How well did armies consisting mainly of warband do historically?

They generally lost against Romans.

If we are attempting to make troops better when historically they were poor that isn't a problem is it?

Re: Warband underpowered

I've used plenty of warbands in the Dacian and done very well with it. Whilst I have the 24 bases of Superior, Protected Impact Foot, Heavy Weapon. I also have around 7 unit of 8 Average Warband.

I haven't found Romans to be an issue as I can put the superior chaps against the veterans and the ...
