Do you guys think, especially Luddite, that these rules would lend themselves to historic, I could publish army lists in the ezine

Luddite · 24 March 2015, 03:26:31 PM

What I would say is...they certainly do.

A historical version may be under development at the moment.

That would be fun, need any playtesters?

Ironduke · 24 March 2015, 03:48:37 PM

Ooo yes I'll playtest, and if it's in production I won't harp on about army lists in the ezine, don't wanna give the game away

jchaos79 · 24 March 2015, 11:31:11 PM

That is pretty interesting

getagrip · 24 March 2015, 11:46:53 PM

Be interesting to see if it "translates " $:-\$

The big work would be the lists, not the rules.

Agree with that. Fantasy lists usually need "toning down" for historical.

If the focus was on doing lists for the historical ancient armies covered by the Pendraken Ranges first, it would not take too long and I am sure plenty of people would be keen to help. The Pendraken ranges seem to cover many of the most popular ancient armies such as Greeks so if you did an Early Hoplite Armylist, with options to turn it into a full Early Spartan armylist for example, it is all on one page hopefully.

What armies would you like to see included as a basis?

Would 'Rome and her enemies' be a good start?

Ironduke · 25 March 2015, 10:59:53 AM

Perfect! Early imperials would be chippa, he says wiping drool from his chin

Awesome. From the few bat reps I've seen, it looks as though the Warband mechanics would suit that period rather well $:-\$

'Rome and her enemies' would be brilliant, possibly followed by 'Dark Ages'.

Ooo yes dark ages, I've got viking and Saxon armies on my bench

Bodvoc · 25 March 2015, 12:03:08 PM

Rome and her enemies, the Dark Ages from the end of the Roman Empire up to 1066, but maybe only doing the armies with most appeal and having in a points system where players who want to cover the less popular armies can easily produce their own lists. Greek and Persian Wars would also be a favourite.
