Another way to deal with Swarm armies

Post by timmy1 »

I am not sure that this is the correct way to go but if it is still percieved that there is a problem with swarm armies, as suggested by the thread viewtopic.php?t=18423, how about the below?

Battle groups of less than 6 bases get +1 on the death roll for not losing a close combat rather than +2.

It would encourage the use of 6 base BG of cavalry and therefore smaller BG armies for armies that are small already.

Phil, don't disagree but then I don't see a problem that others do with swarm armies...

I agree you just need to look at the Britcon results to see how the swarm armies got on.
