Basic Impetus 2.0

Ok, one more project to be released in 2015.

Just a possibile cover

Great !!... look out DBA

Fantastic can't wait

Very good news, looking forward to getting a copy.

I want it, I want it, I want it NOW.

Yes, please.

most of the time required to make 2.0 version will be the work on army lists.
Some volunteers could help to create some draft.
If interested you can contact me at dadiepiombo AT libero DOT it
I will explain how to make and give the file for the point system.

Hello Lorenzo,

E-mail sent. Have you thought about putting a message on The Miniatures Page to ask for more volunteers? There are lots of fans of the rules there.

so far you are the second. I think that 4 or 5 should be enough to coordinate. If I cannot get that number via this forum, I will try with TMP

I'm happy to help, even if only running an eye over things

Jim

I would like to help if I can.

phenallred, please contact me at dadiepiombo AT libero DOt it

How is this progressing? Do you have any idea of a release date target?


-- Jeff

a Group is working at the new lists. Once done I will make a check.
I suppose that could be released by September. But I'm also considering a paper version (it will depend on number of pages) that could be released later.

Do you expect that there will be any substantive changes in the Vol. V (Rome and the Mediterranean Sea) army lists?

I am getting ready to re-base all of my Ancients for Basic Impetus and I would prefer not to have to get things wrong.

I am not concerned about any changes to unit stats -- but rather about the number of which types of units in the armies.


-- Jeff

There are some changes, which particular armies are you immediately interested in?

Jim

Mainly Carthage and Syracuse.

But also Rome in that I only have enough Legionaries with pilum for 3 units (i.e., option #2 in version 1) . . . is that list still doable with only 3 Legionaries?

(note that my figures are all OLD (i.e., small) 25mm figures so it will be hard to match them now . . . so I cannot easily add Legionaries.)


-- Jeff

UPDATE -- Actually I believe that Legionaries I have are RAFM 25s -- so I can get more.

So (Beside Syracuse & Carthage changes) I need to know the minimum/maximum number of Legionary (with pilum) units the Polybian Romans can have depending upon options.


-- Jeff

When will this V2 be available? Is it decided if it is pdf, paper or both yet?

I hope to have it ready before the end of the year. PDF and possibly also printed version. Maybe pdf could come before and after the printe version.

I hope so too.........

Estimated time of arrival on this?

End of the year is approaching and I have to say that my dice hand is also getting itchy in anticipation of revised version...

We have been having a lot of fun lately with BI and would like to know when the revised version will be released.
