The new Ancients rules from TFL

[FreddBloggs]

Skirmish like Sp, smaller or big battle?

[Jeremy]

About SP size. Lots on the TFL blog if you’re interested

[Count Belisarius]

I'm basing with 2(Infamy) in mind as well...

[goat major]

singles with movement trays and sabots will work well with most sets of rules nowadays. The specific-basing approach seems have gone since the DBxx/FOG days. I've always been collecting my forces with the view I could use them with WAB, WFB, HC, various Rampants etc

Here’s a link to the Lardies set Fred (they had Infamy as the original name, then changed it to a trial name of D&V as some people have problems with TFL’s more humorous names, but Rich sensibly reverted to the original name - thus the blog entries appear under both names. It’s not confusing in the slightest )

Which explains my confusion, as I knew the sp sized one as D&V.

Having read the blurb, he does my absolute pet hate in the period. They were NOT barbarians, the Gaul Ceasar put to fire and sword was a more advanced civilisation than Rome ever reached.
