Empires of the Dragon

Seeing the Blood and Gold thread has prompted me to ask, is there a similar list of armies available for Empires of the Dragon yet? The Slitherine website (http://www.fieldofglory.com/catalogue/20.html) doesn't have any info, though I notice there's now a cover (with what looks like those headline grabbing Samurai) at http://www.fieldofglory.com/catalogue/.

Thanks for any help you can give!

Thanks for this. Would what was called 'Spring and Autumns Chinese' be under the Early Zhou or Warring States?

I would think the Early Zhou list, which goes from 1122 to circa 350 BC.

Every time you post one of these lists of armies, I have to spend days on Wikipedia...

Hi,
I'm not involved in Osprey, but Osprey books relative to all the Chinese Armies (my favourite ones) are great.
My advice is to read them

Are the later indian lists the ones referred to in the Ghaznavid list as available allies. the reference there indicates they are in a yet to be published book.

Pardon my ignorance. Does this cover the Imjin war?

No. All FOG: Ancient & Medieval lists end no later than 1500 AD.

The Imjin war will no doubt be covered by FOG: Renaissance, which is in preparation. However, it will be a while before it is available.

From that list:

I would like No. 6 for an appetizer, and a small plate of No. 24 for entree.

Or maybe just the buffet.

A friend of mine got himself a mail order bride. On the wedding night he woke up feeling a bit horny, so he tapped her on the shoulder and said 'I feel like a bit of 69'. She yelled at him 'if you thing i wake up an make beef and black bean at this time of night...'
