[Alsatia]

Rules are ok. I'm fine with it.

[Vasiliyi]

Well, im not sure if this is the correct thread to sign up in, but ill give it a go as the Arche Seleukeia

[m0r1d1n]

the rules seem fine IMO...the few battles i played with u seemed well balanced..i had a match with ACS (KH vs Baktria) too and it was a close one...though i only give my opinion from KH, mak and carthago POV...
BTW gr8 job on the organization for previous tourney sir...a balloon for u if i may...

[Jebivjetar]

Sign me in. I'll play Carthage again

[Apázlinemjó]

It's a bit foggy for me, what about the LIGHTs? Only those units count as LIGHT which have skirmishing mode? What about the axemen in Anatolia? And the Thuerophoroi? And the levy spearmen? And the shortswordsmen?

EDIT: LOL, Never mind, I read it again.

good rules, but i totally disagree those ridicolous 3k that romani leave.
I didn t see, in last tourney, that romani are so strong with 36k... they lost many battle also with polybian 36k (all principes) full upgrade
Maybe this rule can work with all pre-marian romani(polybian and camillan), but not with post-marian in my mind.
Another thing: i think barbarians should be allowed to take more light troops than 6.
I m going to take Hayadsan for this new tourney... maybe...

Yeah I kinda noticed the rule altered too. Does it only apply to Camillan and Polybian armies or for every single Romani army regardless of what era

Since we don't have elite limits anymore, it prevents people from taking the all Pedites, Triarii spam army. Its not like your all principes spam was realistic either and knowing you, you pretty much sat there, let your cav get beaten by someone else and died. The main reason that post Marian is hit with the 3K limit as well is because people got pissed at your for your missile spam of 6 Sagitarii but I think there is a way around that:

Post Marian troops get to use all their money except I'm actually going to enforce your use of Imperial Era cavalry. You're stuck with Alae Imperatoria, Pratorean Cavalry, and the various mercs like you guys should have been doing all last tournement instead of the Marian Auxillaries.

I'll test it today.

PS. Infact, I remember one time we played and you took that army. You lost your cavalry in a big engagement against Mak and quit.

I may be wrong, but from what I understand (from my tester games with ASM), LIGHT units are any units that have skirmish mode and/or 'fast moving'.

[antisocialmunky]

Fast moving + not 'well armored' or skirmish for infantry and skirmish + not 'well armored' for cav.

Same goes for me.
