Just an update. I modified the list based on the feedback to: (from memory) 3 TC 1x 4 Companions Cav,Armored, Elite, Drilled, Lancers, Swordmen 1x 6 Agema Cat,heavily armored, superior,drilled, Lancers, Swordsmen 1x 12 Argyspides HF, protected, superior, drilled, pikemen 1x 12 Phalanx HF, protected,...

lol. Very entertaining.

Take some 'cheap' knights (18pt) and dismount them, and take voulgiers. Manuever around the end with some cav (not knights- could be a slight suprise if put down last) and peasants. There really is not much variety with this match up. Basically the french need to dismount some knights to be decent a...

Yeesh I meant WAB, not WHFB... No such thing as a Wessex army in WHFB...lol.

Great feedback though!

That makes sense and thanks for always being helpful Hammy.

I would like to know how people that have played whfb and are now using their 25mm's for FoG are actually basing their figures. It seems most folks would not want to rebase at all and would then either use base sizes in a factor of 20mm (20mmx20mm base for infantry), so either 60mm frontage or 80mm....

Comments welcome. I am most concerned with Knights in my cavalry fights. I know people prefer poor slings to fill the LF role, but I do not have those models... just archers and a few javelinmen. Are elephants or camels a good idea to try to help fight knights? 1 IC 1 TC 1x 4 Companions Cav,Armored,...

If you are new to historicals, you may want to check out 10mm figures as well. They have good detail, are quick to paint, and look great in massed units. Here are links to some 10mm Crusaders-era: http://www.magistermilitum.com/prodtype.asp?PT_ID=1243&strPageHistory=cat http://www.pendraken.co.u...

Well you could always just measure your move distance from the rear base. This would force the front base to move less than its base move rate, but they would stay in formation.

Quite the penalty for being in column

Why not just say each stand in the in-column-BG can not move farther than its base movement? This would allow stands that are farther back in the line to move out some, but not an extreme amount. I've been in formations in the military where the front of a colum was moving down a road, and the middl...

It sounds like this is a new charge from the non-pursing unit. I could be wrong though. The new charge, I think, should cause an impact phase rout move, similar to "being charged while fragmented". They should have a "being charged while broken" section to cover this situation. T...

Wouldn't the contacted base be turned to conform to the charging unit, then when the rout occurs it would look exactly like the 2nd picture?

For the US: You should be able to pick those up at a home improvement store. They are called Screw Post Extensions. Here are some online: http://www.screwpost.com/ 100 extensions are about $28.36 on that site, so they should be relatively cheap in Home Depot or something similar. White aluminum and ...

The direction of charge and time it is declared is a tad confusing to me. This came up recently: Distances not to scale... http://n10cd123.googlepages.com/fog.jpg The knights declare a charge against the Lbow (the battle lines were slightly farther away than the appear in the image). At the point of...

I think the swiss can have a BG of 8 Kn during the Burgundian Wars (sorry I don't have my book with me though)

I played my 1st late Seleucid game this weekend against Carthaginians: (mine is 800 vs your 600 though) 1x FC 1x TC 12x Argyraspides. HF, Sup, Pro, Dr, Pikes 12x Phalanx. HF, Ave, Pro, Dr, Pikes 4x Companions, Elite 6x Cataphracts. Superior, Drilled 6x Thureophoroi, Ave, Pro, Off Spear, Drilled 2x E...

Hehe.. thanks for the comments guys. Actually I saw that my excel sheet was adding things up wrong.. I missed the points for the elephants altogether. This will be my last post on this thread though since it probably should have been in a different location... sorry. C-in-C 1 Inspired Commander Sub-...

Anyone mind giving me feedback on this list? It seems very similar to the original post, but as its 800 points its heavier on the Saka Cav to try to deal with light combat (probably alongside the elephants). The cataphracts of course will hang back and attempt to take advantage of out-of-formation u...
