Be thankful. Terry was the alternative.

Was his daughter not available to look after him this time? Sad when you get old like that.

Rarely has my umpiring been inhibited by knowledge.

You can always agree to roll a dice if you think it gives a better decision - then I can get on with my own game.

And think of me - I do have to call on Terry if I need a ruling :-)

This wasn't the intention, and I will be taking a view on any such lists submitted. Likewise minor allies that don't get a main list of their own. The point was to keep the tone of the lists within the Classical "theatre".

Ask nicely and offer a suitable bribe. :lol:

Tim, in the case of the Huns can you make an official and published decision please. I can think of at least 1 army off hand where this could make a difference to the army, and could cause a surprise to an opponent and thus, potential bad feeling.

Ok I have decided and am going to give the 15mm AM early period a go. Managed 3rd with numidians at Roll Call - think I'll tr something with a bit more punch this time.

Looking forward to seeing everyone there.

I've asked this in a PM but everyone must want to know.

Can Late Libyan Allies be used?

They only exist as allies and, I believe, only to these 4 of the armies above listed, Kyrenean Greek, Late Dynastic Egyptian, Early Carthaginian and Syracusan.

It doesn't really make any difference to Hun allies, as Attilla is not specified as Inspired/Field/TC. So a Hun ally would be legal just by following the Western Hun list. It does make a difference for minor armies, like the Late Libyans, who only exist as allies to other nations.

Makes a difference to the armies they are possibly allied with if the Huns are only allowed in the Attila dates - in some cases it can mean they are not available, in others what troops the main army has available.

We have changed the rules on the WAR website to cover the Huns and Arabs - see http://www.wargamesassociationreading.c ... .-2509.pdf.

However, I think my ruling, since we're now only 6 weeks away and I have started to receive lists, is no more changes to what's published there. So, Phil, no Late Libyan allies.

Warfare 2011 lists

Post by TimChild »

Just a reminder to everyone who is coming to Warfare, that I do need your lists by the 31st October please. That's three weeks ahead of the event, I know, but I do have over 100 to do normally, between DBMM and FOG, so need plenty of time!

Cheers,

Tim Child

You could have asked for somebody to volunteer to help...

I could, but I enjoy it and FOG lists are pretty easy (compared to DBx!) :D

I have a volunteer from within WAR to help with the DBMM list-checking this year, so I am at least experimenting with this weird theory that life is easier if you delegate.
