I dont see the point when we have an accessible web site here, Paul. But what ever, all best with your project(s). CarlL Yes, but posting photos here is problematic… and there’s so much great DBA content on the FB pages that you don’t get on Fanaticus. You really are missing out 😉 P

paulisper your output and variety of topics is phenomenal, but sadly wasted (in terms of viewings) on us non FB users.... CarlL I’ll keep saying it - come on in, the water’s lovely 😉 P

...for me it is an anglosaxon error. The Alemanni were initialy a male group of loosers from beaten germanic tribes. They did fight as infantry including the commander. If there were any mounted troops, then any beaten Huns or Alans as scouts. The hardest enemies of Alemanni were Burgundians. That is the reason for Huns or Alans... Great to know, but doesn’t really help with the question 😝 P

I would instinctively play that it remains in column, but I think it has to be a FAQ because the rules seem silent. I’m with Paul H - they stay in column… P

As I wait for my Donnington order of 2x4Pk to arrive to finish off the Attalid Pergamene, I’ve moved onto the II/75 Kaya Korean from Irregular Miniatures that I won for my second placing at last year’s Steel Warrior tournament. Irregular haven’t got a great rep in 15mm circles, but these are actually painting up pretty well 👍

To give one example among many, when two LH in column receive a “flee” result, both should flee rather than the front one being destroyed. I didn't even know this existed until yesterday (thanks Paddy) - seems totally counter intuitive as to how a swirling mass of LH are supposed too work. As if they haven't gotten enough going against them as it is. We have brought this in as a change to the DBF rules, currently in Beta phase of development P
