I have got a simple idea concerning deployment and light armies. The aggression and terrain placement rules concerning attacker and defender apply as usual, but not the defender deploys and moves first. Instead, that player who has got more light units like light horse, cavalry, Ps, 3Ax etc. in his army (edit:) decides which armies deploy and move first. which army deploys and moves first.To determine the exact value of agility or velocity of an army you could simply sum up the movement rates in GG of every (!) unit. Vikings III 40a reach for example a value of 35 (with Ps), whereas II 80c Huns reach the highest possible value of 48. But if you prefer an easier way, simply count the Cav, Lh, and Ps.  |

That sounds interesting. I am going to try that. Great for campaigns.

Woggles must be included somewhere (Woggles...? Who can translate 'woggles' into German? Is it a short form for boy scouts?)  |

I thought along similar lines for LH armies that had high Aggression and also possessed 'x' more LH (and other skirmishy types) than their opponent. Without going into the details, the basic idea was that even though the army had a higher Aggression than the opponent, if they 'outscouted' them they deployed second and moved first. (No dice roll.) |

Very nice. It inspired ne to refine my house rule a little bit... Thanks! |
