New trivia question! There are two troop types that appear in both the first army list (I/1a Early Sumerian) and the last (IV/85b Burgundian Ordonnance 1478-1506 AD) - what are they? 4Bw ( even though IV/85b are 4Lb) and Ps .

I think the answer is probably (b) (The move is legal, but the contact with rear cavalry is ignored. Yep it would be a legal contact rule wise for combat on the front element , but not the rear one . HB rulebook , Page 10 MOVING INTO CONTACT WITH ENEMY"or (c) in front edge to side edge contact with front corners in contact"

Interesting figures. I use to base then paint but reverted to painting sticks as that was easier for angles to access figures with paintbrush. It looks like they are just blu tacked to the bases .

Super work malory . Not my usual period, but I am very tempted to follow your lead. I already have , ordered both Early Polish armies from QR .

And the next army is basically done. II/5f Phokians Nice looking army . On page 54 in the V3 HB rule book the II/5f Phokians are listed as : 1 x General (Cv), 5xSp, 3xPs, 1xCv or Sp, 1xArt or Ps, 1xPs .

In game 4 I was given NeoHittites & Phoenician allies by Richard Pulley. Sorry Richard but this army was a disjointed pile of crap. Do you think that others are having to use someone else's army influences the choices made in its make up ?

Unlikely, given that all eligible armies must have Ps or LH as half the army, and there are very few (if any) armies that can have lots of Bw in the other half I/5a Early Susiana or Elamite Army 3000-2601 BC Gen 3Bw , 5 x 3Bw , 6 Ps . Nubians won't get so many Bw : Gen 3 Bw , 2 x 3Wb , 1 Ps (jav) , 5 Ps(bow) , 3 x 3Bw .

Spot on. Choosing order of combats, which goes first, can be vital. 👍 As can rolling high…… Sometimes rolling low can be good , if you can get an element to follow up , into a double overlap .

Plenty of easy kills for the Bw in other words. 🙈 Not necessarily , take the II/39c Lusitanian for example , Gen Cv , 1 Lh , 5 Ps , 1 3Bd , 1 3Ax , 3 4Bd (allies) , so it is possible to make harder for the Bw to get any kills .
