Re: WTC24 (SWISS) ROUND 4 TEAM POSITIONS & ROUND 5 MATCHES

I think there is also something wrong with the last match: we Comites have already fought against Lupi Belli

Re: Can these three factions be further refined?

They are based on Duncan Head's analysis in "Armies of the Macedonian and Punic Wars". I have seen no evidence to overturn his conclusions. I took the liberty of getting the book you mentioned, and I went on to read, for example, the paragraph about the Apuli (a people whose history I kno...

Re: Can these three factions be further refined?

I think a small proportion of impact foot for various Italian lists is totally plausible though I think the same. Lets wait for Richard opinion Which is that I do not believe that there is sufficient justification to make the changes you propose. Thank you, Richard, for participating in this discus...

Re: Can these three factions be further refined?

As a lot of assunptions made for a considerable amount of other factions, nobody knows if those warriors actually fought using a proper hoplite phalanx. Are we sure for example that the hoplites used by Campanians actually fought using it? Right I mean I don't think the Campanians or the Romans sho...

Re: Campio - Season 6: ongoing

Exactly three months after the start of the final, here is the result of the second match: MrCrow (Pyrrhic 280-275 BC) draws with principesromanes (Galatian 280-63 BC) 52-54 Therefore, the total score now becomes: MrCrow 108, principesromanes 78. Ironically, a tournament dedicated to Pyrrhus could o...

Re: Can these three factions be further refined?

I was talking generically about the use of impact + offensive spearmen in the same army. The three armies actually have these configurations (for medium size): APULIAN Veteran armoured cav / cost 60 / 2+ 0 to 6 Veteran italian foot / cost 66/ 0 to 3 Italian foot / cost 36 / 7 + 0 to 24 light jav / c...

Re: Can these three factions be further refined?

In addition to what I wrote earlier, I am showing you some images of artifacts from the Italian cultural heritage catalog. These are artifacts found in Iapygian or Lucanian tombs, and they are by no means 'medium infantry' armor. They are not war spoils either, but armor and helmets used expecially ...

Re: Can these three factions be further refined?

Are there any factions with hoplites + Samnite foot? Any/many with hoplites + impact foot? It usually goes one way or another. Samnite foot are identical to spanish Scutari. A lot of list has spanish Scutari with offensive spearmen. For example, the list you are using in WTC. Anyway I'm not getting...

Can these three factions be further refined?

As Richard may probably remember, in the past I have had the opportunity to provide you with information and suggestions about some pre-Roman peoples of southern Italy (in particular the Apulians), which were well-received and subsequently led to modifications in FoG. Recently, I had a similar oppor...
