Hail Caesar - Depth of Units
«

Hello!
I'm really confused with the depth of units. On page 16 the tables contain a row with
3 deep Infantry
, but I found no 3 deep unit in the book or the army lists. It seems there is only the standard 2 deep Infantry and the 4 deep for warbands and pike phalanxes. Am I right?
Cheers

Its quite a while since I played, but base depth, and figure counts, have little impact on the rules.
Base width matters, and as you note warband units are deeper, and therefore harder to manoeuvre

As I understand it, and the way we play it is that 3 deep units are for spear armed phalanx such as Greeks and Carthaginians and similar. Pike Phalanxes used by the Macedonians etc. are in 4 ranks. All other formed units are in two ranks.
However as Wellington says the depth doesn't matter for the rules but for the look of it we think that gives us a good visualisation on the table top.
