Oriental Warfare?
« on: January 27, 2014, 05:39:00 PM »
Quick question: Why isn't there an Oriental Board?

Japan, China and the rest of South-East Asia should have their own board. Or at least one for Samurai...

I think in the past and currently it tends to be grouped with period specific threads/boards

Other adventures - "Wargaming that doesn't fit in other boards (Oriental, Flintloque, Malifaux etc.)"

"A jewelled sceptre plucked by order to serve their cause"

That.

We never had enough posts for an extra board.

Though who knows maybe we would have if we had such a board.

Well, I posted my Khmer galley stuff under medieval because it was that time period. I notice there are Samurai posts on several boards. Depending upon the era it could be medieval or even slightly later.

Strikes me as "Oriental" is a geographical division when most of the subforums are organized by date/era.

Of course that might still be confusing. Do Shogunate samurais go in Medieval (for style of warfare and comparable armies) or Big Battalion (by date)? What's more technically correct by the board nomenclature?

I would put all Oriental things to the Other Adventures and no to try to classify them. Makes it much easier.

Seems like this is the best place to ask now, but is there a section now opening up for it? They seem to have all vanished out of the Other Adventures section
