The Match Reports Index & Calendar

Warband Fast & Skirmisher army in 3.1 Shocker as the Carthaginians do OK under 400ap themed DBM 3.1

Getting into the Biblical Era for the first time in 3 years, we fielded a new army (well, the Chinese were pants!).

Using Khmer, I formed part of the central London team, along with Mick n' Dave. Initially ranked as our third player, lovely Mr Hutchby had promoted me to First Place in our team....so I would have to play all the decent players. Bugger.. see what happened here
We took along Arab Conquest - in the 650AD-1150 Ad period, really because it was more interesting than Abbasid, and we thought that our Rus army would be a sitting duck for Tibetans. The game plan involved attacking at night...although we hadn't actually though of that when we first considered the army selection - just when we realized the possibilities, it made our decision more definite! Here's the overall report
Well, having been persuaded (probably against my better judgment!) to transfer to the 25mm Ancients DBM Competition,, on arrival I found that I was back in the 15mm DBM 2 competition.
