It is a great set of rules, but quite complex. The skirmisher rules are brilliant.

Indeed, I may pick up a set myself.

A very nice collection  , and great basing to match the table.!!
Steve Burt , mate once you play GDA a few times the rules you will pick it up & find that they are quite quick to play and not complex at all .
The only bit that slows it down is the final charge / combat  mechanic, i really like them. .
I agree I also like the Skirmisher rules as well.!!
Cheers
Ps My only Gripe with GDA is the lack of an "Binding Order System ", ie "General attack that hill with the Bayonet" cant be readily Interpreted to suit by a player to  "Look wander over there if you like, when you like   .."
I prefer the GDB actual Order system which we Bolt on to GDA .
Yes I do realise , it is a different game ..  lol lol .. but  seems more realistic ...if thats your concern .
Cheers
