Re: Legionaries and Legionary recruits in the same formation

Hi Makanoto, it's been a while since in here but I think I answered this question on Facebook.
Yes legionaries of different troop quality can form a single group.
And yes you would use the higher number of signas required to create the activation. (Depending on circumstances)

Slingers movement

I'm just preparing some slinger bases and adding the characteristics to them. In the rule book under example of typical units and late republucan roman lists massed slingers have a movement of D6+1 However in the pricipate roman, slave revolt, Numidian, Ancient Britons, and other the slingers are D6...

Re: This is incredibly frustrating as the Romans

I do think it is hard for the Romans and very hard for them against chariots. I haven't used imperial Romans that much but have used late Republican. When building a force I look at the opponents If they are mainly foot like the germans then you can purchase another legionary group and then top up w...

Shooting results table

Hi, the shooting results table in the book and qrs seem different. Which one is correct. The book seems to punish skirmishers more with a lower roll than a higher roll. From the book Push back result: The target unit is pushed back 1 square. Unless the unit has a skirmisher characteristic they will ...

Re: Supports in close combat

Hi Mark, thanks.
So the unit in the flank or rear doesn't have to be the one initiating the combat, the fact that they are there is enough for the unit being attacked to half its attack score.

My first game is Sunday and really looking forward to playing these rules.

Supports in close combat

I'm pretty sure I have this correct. When you initiate a close combat/ charge you gain support from friendly units directly on your flanks who have the enemy in their ZOC and aren't in another enemies ZOC. I read it that if you have any other friendly unit not on your flank but they still have the e...

Foot cavalry forming 1 group

Hi all, In the rule book page 12 2nd column, 2nd paragraph. 'Foot groups may not detach from cavalry in the same turn in which they joined them' This suggests that in a game I can combined a foot and cavalry group to form a foot cavalry group. Assuming bot have the foot cavalry characteristic. Same ...
