Well I had fun yesterday trying to master Big Battle DBA (in version 3) with help of David and his beautiful 25/28mm Bactrian and Seleukid Successor armies, and our fellow DBA player Paul. The three of us live in separate towns in North Yorkshire so its a great treat to meet up and play DBA and have fun!! (Only our second DBA game together since end of covid limitations on gatherings!)
I have to admit that my early exposure to DBA (version 1) helps me to play without too much 'learning' but that Big Battle DBA (in version3) reminds me more of DBMM than DBA!!??
We had a great and 'deadly' game, both armies lost two generals and had one command each demoralised, before seeking the final 'element(s)' to seal a win! We diced for sides and played 2v1 players, with much banter and fun. In end my Seleukid force was over come by those well known Bactrian general Diodotus David I Soter and his protege Antiochus Paul I.

Carl: Don't tell anyone... but those 15mm DBA players are lightweight pansies... 25/28mm is the true scale. I 'm glad you found it early on... But keep it under wraps... the 15mm players have delicate dispositions!

Size isn’t everything… …at least, so I’ve been told.

DBA with figures bigger than 15mm is compensating for something ....

Does that mean 6mm players are super confident? no just better eyesight! Or worse, and can't be bothered to paint the details!

But you are special in so many ways I always believed that my mother told me I needed to be special. Then I later found out she said I had special needs.
