Thats what I thought but couldn,t see them in my download copy. Will look again! What "download copy"? The rulebook isn't available as a download. Earlier drafts of the rules might be knocking around, but they vary from the published version. Or are you using Sue Laflin-Barker's "Start Ancient Wargaming"?

No just found out I have an old download copy. DOH! Now upgrading! Is it a good idea to get "Start Ancient Wargaming"?

I would recommend obtaining the full rule book over Sue's book. The rule book has the diagrams and all the army lists. As such it is excellent value.
In my view Sue's book is best for someone starting out. Perhaps useful for a young person looking at Ancient Wargaming for the first time. It has a section of lists but has a section describing a sample game and simple terrain building. It has a different target audience.

Phil made various versions of draft copies available on Yahoo during the development time. Note that the last draft version is not as the final version so there are some differences. Best to get the published rules. About $50 but that is about the going price for ancients rule books. There were some complaints that the rule book does not have any color pictures other authors use to fill up pages. This problem has been rectified by the free online version of Great Battles in History with DBA 3. So you can get the rules now with lots of color pictures of games. ancientwargaming.wordpress.com/2016/06/04/download-great-battles-of-history/
