Re: 28mm Tournament Sheffield Triples 19th March
Hi everyone - is that Stephen Davison of Norman army fame making a return to the Impetus comps after a year or so?
Great if so - I remember we always seem to get drawn to play each other in comps?
Have you still got your Norman or EI Romans?
Any early hints on what people are thinking of fielding. My most recent painted army is Teutonic Knights but just bought figures to exactly get to 350 points so feels a bit unbalanced if I stretch it to 400 points. Played last Derby competition with Swiss so might blow the dust off Late Romans?
Cheers Jez

I've always liked the Late Roman/Early Byzantine armies, a lovely mix of interesting options.jeztodd wrote:Hi everyone - is that Stephen Davison of Norman army fame making a return to the Impetus comps after a year or so?

Hi Guys,
Just in case it hasn't become clear, I'm going to be there,
I'm still working on the army this time, but it will change! lol!
See you all there on the day. This time I'll try to remember my box of gaming bits!

Vharasmatic Generals.
Hi Guys,
I had a discussion with someone who might have confused my lil brain.
Now this might be more pertinent in the Rules question heading but as required for this Competition I'd appreciation.
A Charismatic General has the advantage of adding 1 to the discipline test of units UNDER HIS COMMAND but only for Rallying.
I have always believed that as he is the C in C, all his own army but not Allied Contingents are under his command.
The alternative suggestion is that only troops under his DIRECT control, that is in the command directly he controls, benefit from this advantage?
As there is the option of 'detached' C in C (not that anyone uses it of course!) it would suggest that my view is right?
Only Allied contingents, who count their own general as C in C do not benefit.
Sorry to rabbit on but want to be clear.

I've always played it as the troops in his command, not the troops under any other commanders.

Re: 28mm Tournament Sheffield Triples 19th March
I think Steve has it correct - just the troops under direct command. Remember the "detatched" CinC can't be Charismatic
For everyone shouting "El Cid!!" there is always someone else saying "he's looking a bit pale and is riding stiffly today"

If space still available, I'm in. Still painting the extra figures needed, paint might be a bit wet...

Re: 28mm Tournament Sheffield Triples 19th March
OK Gents time to start thinking about submitting army lists. As before I'm just asking for them to be posted up here for peer checking rather than going to the organiser (err me). Can we get them up on here by the end of Saturday? No prize for first post other than a warm feeling inside :-)

Re: 28mm Tournament Sheffield Triples 19th March
I'll go first! This is an adaption to the army i first used up in Scotland when the world was 300 points. It then got sold and another version painted up when we went to 350 points. This is the new 400 point version. I have no doubt that it will perform as badly as the previous ones ;-)
Mid Republican Roman
Average CS 12pts VD 27 Re-Roll 5pts
1st Legion - Army commander Genius 40pts VD 13
2 x FP 6 3 A 66pts
3 x FL 4 4 C Large Units 63pts
1 x S 3 0 B 14pts
2nd Legion - Commander Fair 20pts VD 7
2 x FP 6 3 A 66pts
1 x S 3 0 B 14pts
3rd Legion - Commander Fair 20pts VD 7
2 x FP 6 3 A 66pts
1 x S 3 0 B 14pts
Points done from memory but I'm fairly sure of them. Using Line Relief.
