No rule set can cover the full range of possibilities, and no set of army lists can cover that full range of forces on the field, I suppose, although some things could be fixed with very minor tweaks, like the all arms issus you refer to.The Polemarchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10958736917525649927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5185876513552272723.post-5523225578274840682022-03-12T10:43:22.554-08:002022-03-12T10:43:22.554-08:00I quite liked the rules - but I like many of his o...I quite liked the rules - but I like many of his other rules more, so I don't get around to playing them very often.JWHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01637785437909299947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5185876513552272723.post-36824909191663784612022-03-12T04:33:52.322-08:002022-03-12T04:33:52.322-08:00I had a similar reaction to the rules.

There were some minor things that annoyed me, such as the given army lists not allowing any possibility for a force to be 'all arms', EVER despite many historical examples. I would have settled for a 1 in 6 chance so I roll twice on the 3 chart instead. <br /><br />Rules wise, the rigidness of the design is behind a few minor bits where the rules prevent historical actions by confining all units to one tactic but the stripped down scenarios seem to work well with other simple rules.
