Ptolemaic army of the 220-200 BC (middle?) i Warbook 1?
Hi, I am wondering about the general composition of the "middle" Ptolemaic army in the new list? I have Extra 4 with the old lists but don´t think it capture the army of the time and are waiting for the pdf version of WB1. Until that time I am curious about what changes have been made to the list? Is there any skirmishers, archers, slingers and so on, how are the restrictions on the numbers of pikemen now, are the more allies or mercenaries in general and so on. That is the sort of info I am hoping for, not if CP have 2 or 3 in I and costs of units.

Not many changes.
Numbers are about the same but with less compulsory thureophoroi.
Beduin camelry now also have shortbow and yes the list has the missing skirmishers. Archers both normal type and Cretans, slingers both normal type and Rhodians as well as javelinmen.

Thank you jorneto, that was exactly the kind of info I was looking for. And it sounds like the list are more in line with my understanding of the Ptolemaic army of that time to!
