Folks - just to confirm that the special rules listed on page 4 of the "To the Ends of the Earth" supplement, will not be used at the Warfare event. Cheers W.

Looks like I will be taking Southern Italians.

Cohesion 5 troops as standard, no bow or sling and 8 bases of javelins in total. A real winner

Although I reserve the right to change my mind in case the original decision I make turns out to be pants in the light of the actual facts that come to light in game testing......

[Andrew Beer]

Hi Bob, I have also considered Southern Italians with zero bows, but with no chance to play test, I'm very concerned if I take to Reading.

[Wayne Richards]

Be brave chaps, help change the meta

[Bob Stradling]

Well the Southern Italian's gave those Athenian interlopers six of the best (but then they were Athenians ) They put up a decent show against some bow heavy Pontics as well. So it looks like the cohesion value 5 troops with a whole 8 Javelins and no bow or slings could be on their way to Reading....

Folks - we have been allocated an additional table for the event, so I have one spot remaining. Please contact me if you would like to take part. Cheers W.

[Bob Stradling]

Having just got back from Southern Italy (the efforts I go to research things!) I will be taking an army based on the Greek city port of Pompei before it became a Roman colony and whilst it was in the process of being de-greeked by the Osci speaking peoples....

Or something like that!

[Darkman]

I'm in. Do I paint another levy pike block or get an elephant. Choices choices.

[Wayne Richards]

Elephant - less to paint and more bang for your buck

[MartinG]

Great I'll bring two!
