Thanks Martin, I have WADBAG 2.2 and now 2.2+.
As it is purely for myself I can deal with things as they come up, but it would be nice to know the common problems.
It will be a re-write as much as sorting problems.
David Constable
P.S. - Sorry put this in the wrong section.

Hello
Did anybody do a list of rule clarifications for DBA2.2?
I want to do my own version for solo use, unfortunately I have not found any notes yet for this version amongst my books etc., I might even have thrown them out.

On a less funny side of this.
I saw a few years ago in a WW2 game some lovely corn fields, made from teddy bear fur. Everybody, including the sellers had to change the name because of protests, and the fact it upset children visiting the shop that sold it.

I am getting close to starting playing DBA2.2 solo. The intention is to slowly revise it, and the armies to suit me. Armies sorted, tables got, terrain on way. Only 20+ armies to paint, to add to my others.

If you PM me your email address I can send you a copy, be warned it is 2.67MB. I think it is the last, but not 100% sure.

I would go for them being Byzantine, note the plume has the same two colours as the shield. Do not know the make at all, sorry.

I am reminded about BBC radio and the way the announcers spoke both before and just after WW2. Now do we take that as proper English? If so an awful lot of people are going to be upset.
That is in living memory, not 2000 years ago.

We think we know how the ancient Greeks and Romans spoke, but do we, language gets corrupted over years, let alone silly errors introduced by people.
The one that always makes me laugh is a road in Birmingham (Midlands U.K.). Now "Monyhull Hall Road" looks OK, however "Monyhull" is a corruption of "Money Hall", so we should end up with "Money Hall Hall Road" (yes the Hall would be in twice). Stirchley nearby got corrupted by the new railway station being spelt the same way as an existing railway station (wrongly). So the area adopted the station spelling.

Sorry no, way to far north from me in the midlands, and I suspect most DBA players who go to events.
Good luck, but two days travel and a cost of about £450 too much for me.

My security and then Norton blocked this as an unsafe site.

In England we cannot agree on English, so no chance across distances.
Warwickshire/Worcestershire slinget/slinket, adjoining Counties, one letter difference.
My grandfather (ABC) was born at Oxford, the B being Bertie, however like Berkshire (adjoining County), it is pronounced Bartie/Barkshire.

Having started looking through the amendments needed, it is worse than I had assumed. List changes from DBA2.2 to DBA3 cannot have helped, but it means I need to be careful over matched pairs for home use in DBA2.2 as well.

No joke, thanks.
A lot more than I was expecting. They keep cropping up, but I fail to mark.
David Constable
P.S. - As there are a number of U.K. competitions based on matched pairs, is it worth adding to competition clarifications?

Nice idea.
I use CdA paints, using the open lid lip to water things down, when the lid is closed it seems to work nicely, most of the time draining the paint back into the pot.
