when i play there are two ways to win

Well you can charge and indeed probably have to. It does however break up a battle line and scatters pike units anywhere from 1" to 5" away from each other. in their next turn the LF are back and the process starts again. you obviously have to fight the pike sometime but it is amazing how...

You do not have much lf which means that if I have quite a bit then i can drive yours away. The pike will then test every turn not to charge which means thta gradually your lines will become fragmented and split up. You don’t need quantity to win a battle I prefer troops that work together that’s h...

Re: Gauls MF or HF

A few years ago I quit DBM and rebased all of my armies for a home written rules set. The quitting DBM was ok, but the whole rebasing thing was idiotic. I have converted to FoG and am in the midst of a massive re-rebasing project. (Happily, the rebased armies will look great, not like the hodgepodg...
