DBA 3 ?
« on: March 25, 2015, 02:34:36 PM »
So DBA 3 was released some time ago but I cant say I have heard much about it.
I think its even been strangely quite.

Anyone here tested it?

I played the previous version from time to time and am considering getting the new version

Any thougts?.

The main change from the previous version is the hugely expanded army list section.
Quite a few rules changes including the introduction of loose and close order (Fast and Solid) versions of troops.

In my eyes they have done a good job,they have just add enough to improve the game but the fast play and format has stayed the same. bow have a better range and ps elements dont get  a -1 for fighting elements that have a flank on them UNLESS the base is past there front edge . the solid and fast types works very well as on a draw the solid will win .
   At the back of the book is the army lists which now have a few lines about the army which is great ..

all in all a great up date of the rules  :) oh and its Hardback now with good binding

happy gaming LR

Maybe its a good excuse to get a new army as well...

Im thinking on getting a new army to rival my Mayans and ordering it from Black Hat http://www.blackhat.co.uk/online_shop/index.php?cPath=22_65&sort=0a&page=1&osCsid=3f64c79b4ed6f1a970a625869f887a8a

If a friendly soul could pm me or write it here, an armylist or what I should get I would be greatfull. So I can order it at the sametime as the rulebook.
Im not sure exact what armies are in so Im just going to namedropp some of the names from the Black Hat site: Otomi, Quachic, Tlaxcallan, Mixtec, Zapotec. Maybe one of them are in the book.

Im not in a hurry but if anyone could write me one armylist or to-get list I would be most gratefull.
Thanks.
