Sounds like a reasonable price. Is it possible to get photos? At any rate don't hold 'em on my account, by all means try and move 'em at CW, but if you're still stuck with 'em at Hcon, maybe we can ma ... |

John- How much are you looking to get for the Normans? I am NOT going to CW, but do plan to be at H-Con this summer. If you don't sell the Normans at CW, let me know how much you want for the Normans. |

Altho I understand why detachments are there, and also understand that such a change is highly unlikely, I have never felt that detachments added anything necessary to the game and would be in favor o ... |

In the revised lists, Seleukids get Irr A scythed flaming Elephants that fight in wedge, right? With 12 crew triple armed with P, HTW and HG? |

In theory, Mark is correct. If he really wants to, your opponent can almost always avoid fighting your pikes.
In practice, having played Seleukids in an awful lot of tourneys, a good plan can make ... |
