These romans were organized in such a way to let BdS exercise

pression all over the combat front. My plan was to involve them in

combat as much as possible and win or lose with them.

Ps S and Ax S had the role to cope with Wb and with difficult going,

The El and the Art were basic tools for Elephants and first rank Kn

generals, while the few mounted were used to outflank enemy if

opportunity arised or as mere reserve.

The army frontage is very small, expecially for I like to deploy my

Bd 2 deep.

The basic plan was to exploit high Ag, look for night and position

all the army far off a side, tryng to turn the enemy wing before the

enemy unengaged corps could do the same.

Clearly this plan could work versus irregular armies and not facing

another roman. There my BdS would have hopefully made the difference.

Last note, I see this list as a work in progress, I think it can be

improved a lot.

500AP, DBM Lists by Tony Dennis

The Roman line up

was of three commands plus a pip dump baggage command. The largest

command in elements and ME included the C-in-C, 24 legionaries [1st

Leg 12 Bd(S), 2nd Leg 12 Bd(O)] and 6 Ps(O). Auxillaries and Bd(I)

with Cretan archers made up the second command, while Cv(O), LH(O) and

Ax(O) made up command 3.

Com 1- Lucullus BdS, 11BdS, 2ArtO - 30/8-11

Com 2- SubG BdS, 11BdS, 2ICvO - 30/8-11

Com 3- SubG BdO, 6IAxS, 2LhO, 2CvO, 4PsI - 18/5-6.5

Com 4- 4BgF - 2/1

 

The concept in this army is to field a manouverable elite infantry

force, that has to take the fight trying to outflank enemy and

manouvering it out of position.

AFIK noone has tried a manouver game with infantry, and I wanted to

see if Baecula or Tigranocerta tactics can be used.

The brilliant general strokes then are to be used to double pips and

or change pips.

The basic formation is with bd in 2 ranks (generals behind) so the

combat frontage is very narrow- Attacking is a plus, for let you

deploy second with the night attack option, always handy.

The whole army can be placed concentrated on a flank, with a couple of

CvO far on the flank to delay enemy manouvers, and spring forward.

Good pips, regular troops and double pips if needed should be enough

to win a manouvering circus

Ambush stratagem

 

400AP, Draft DBMM Lists by Peter Haines

 C1 - 4 reg Bge(F)

 C2 - Sg reg Cv(O), 6 reg Ax(S)

 C3 - Sg reg Cv(O), 6 irr Ax(S), 10 irr Ps(O), 1 irr El(I), 4 irr Cv(O), 2 irr Ps(I)

 C4 - brilliant C-in-C reg Bd(O), 8 reg Bd(S), 12 reg Bd(O), 4 reg Ps(O)

 

 C2 gets the low dice and is intended to secure C4's flank while it marches

 C3 deploys in or around rough going and draws the enemies' attention.

 C4 deploys at the back and goes on a long walk around an available flank.
