I'm interested in gaming this scenario with Hordes and Heroes. I'd love to see your scenario. Your scenery looks magnificent.

On the Hordes and Heroes army lists, do the minimum and maximum percentages reflect percentages of units? Bases? Points costs?

Here's an updated Carthie list including percentages: Gallic or Spanish Cavalry B 3CR 4 (+2) A1 4 12 5 25 Numidian Cavalry (8+) C 4CR 2 JE2F 4 9 10 25 African Spearmen C 1CR 3 (+3) A1 4 8 10 30 Gallic Mercenaries (Horde) CH 2R 3 (+2) A1 4 8 - 25 Spanish Mercenaries C 1CR 3 (+2) A1 4 8 - 15 Light Jav...

Yay! We played our first Hordes and Heroes game last night. A good time was had by all. We played Romans vs. Carthaginians, using lists I cobbled together myself, and pretended that javelin chuckers were archers. Here are the lists we used: Roman Legionaries B 1CR 4 (+2) A2 4 11 Upgrade Veteran Legi...

I like it. Interesting take on handling pila from the Legions. I had thought of just adding additional Impact points to account for throwing pila, but this would work too.

Wonderful! I'd been working on some of my own, but I'm sure my logic stream regarding the stats is totally off from yours. I'll keep my eyes open for your new lists! Thank you in advance!

I'd love to see Ancients lists. I've been working on some myself, using some books from another game system as a guide, but I'd love to see what you can come up with. The biggest problems I find are that I don't know how you would classify, say, Roman Legionaries as opposed to Greek Hoplites, and I ...

Excellent! Thank you very much!

Thank you for that. As another follow-up, if an outnumbered unit wins the combat and scores, say, two stands of losses on the enemy, would each enemy unit lose two stands, or would the losses be divided amongst them?
