Building a list from scratch

[Fallschirmjager]

How does one purchase level 2 and 3 leaders for Romans?
There is no cost for a level 2 or 3 leaders.

I am assuming if I a constructing a list from nothing (not using pre-made list like Caesar in Gaul) that a status 1 leader costs 3 points (since that is the cost in the support options menu.

Pages #'s or guidance to FAQs appreciated

Rich has previously confirmed in response to posts on here and FaceBook that a Level III Warlord costs 10 points. You can only have one in your force.

He also confirmed that there was a last minute printing error which omitted the Status II Leader from the List 6 option in both Roman lists. So one will cost 6 points.

Further to John’s excellent response, if a Roman general picks a level 2 leader for drilled Roman troops, he is an Optio. If anything else he is a normal L2 leader.

Do optios have special rules?

Do optios have special rules?

Yes they do, it’s in chapter 12 Leading Characters on page 72 under the title Optio. Hope that helps

Thanks. That's a pretty cool and characterful rule.
