That was AMAZING! I had to flick through frame by frame. So much drama in each shot. (PS. My money was on the British the whole time. Well done to the Romans for keeping it to 15-10).
Need to work up to that many! I see the Brits have chariots - could anyone help a newcomer with them please? I have the 2.1 rules ('16) which gives them and war dogs -1AP on pg.16. Beyond the chariot treats RG as DG on pg.23, I can not find a single mention of either element type. Where am I missing their extra rules? Thanks
You’ve got it, treating RG as DG is the main difference between chariots and cavalry. Also they are 40mm deep, not 30, so they can’t turn into flank if they punch a 1 element wide hole in the line, because their rear edge can’t touch an enemy unit. Worth it for the 1 pt discount, I take as many as I can get. War dogs are treated a IWbF, the only difference is they don’t get rear rank support. In general, you point them at the enemy and let them go impetuous,hoping they cause some trouble. I am currently building the Ancient British Panzer division, lots of chariots that can dismount as WbS. Scary and flexible.
Great to see a massive DBMM battle

Many thanks, the credit should go to Tony for his magnificent armies……sheer dedication to paint 1,000 points when most of us stop at 400…..
It was epic!

@@ChrisMusic2468 Brilliant, simple and thorough thank you.
Still in the blood, Brits loved their cruiser tanks. Hope you have a lot of fun with yours.
Is this 15mm?
Yes, all figures 15mm
