Here's my Later Carthaginian ( War in Italy upgrades for Vets and Campanian Hoplites )

I come from playing WAB and have never played DBM

IC + 3 TC

8 Afr Vets HF/SUP/DRL/ARM/OFF SP/ SPR
8 Afr Vets HF/SUP/DRL/ARM/OFF SP/ SPR
8 CAMP HOP HF/AVE/DRL/ARM/IMP/ SW
8 CAMP HAST HF/AVE/DRL/PRO/IMP/ SW ( allies )
4 BAL SNG LF/SUP/ - /UNP/SLG
4 LBY CAV CAV/SUP/ - /ARM/LT SP/SW
4 SPN CAV CAV/SUP/ - /ARM/LT SP/SW
4 NUM CAV LH/AVE/ - /UNP/LT SP/JAV
4 NUM CAV LH/AVE/ - /UNP/LT SP/JAV
FORTIFIED CAMP

This leaves me 27 pts......... what would you spend the points on

Do I drop the Spanish Cav to protected and make it up to 6 ?
Do I drop the Campanian Hoplites to protected
Do I need 2 BG's of LH or just 1 thats 6 bases

Thought you might find it interesting see a list from someone not having olayed DBM before......

Suggestion all greatfully considered

I would drop one TC (you only have a small number of BG's and a lot of generals) to give yo 62 points to play with then spend them on a decent BG of MF to give you a bit of punch in terain. IIRC 8 bases of Spanish MF Av, Prot,-,IF,Swd would cost 56 points.
