Does anyone know of another B of Ord. List or lists other than the
old WRG book three or the NASAMW list??

I don't know about any new lists, but I do like the existing NASAMW one for
a 25mm army. Not a killer army, but a skilled player could win with it in my
opinion.

It used to be that buying the Savoyard/Italians was tough because the
knights didn't wedge. Now that they fight rank and a half, you can buy 12 or
so of these, allowing you to get light cavalry and all that light infantry.
The LI isn't bad really, use the guys with 1SA and shield to pin and the CB
to shoot (duh). It's also nice to buy less Ordonnance Gendarmes and as a
result, less of that shieldless heavy cavalry.

Elephants will still be a tough match, but if you play it right, you can do
some damage. I'm not sure about how well it will work in 25mm, but there is
still that time honored 15mm tactic for when you have a bad matchup ...
avoid what kicks your butt, and try to kill whatever you can.

I used to play this army in 15mm several years ago. More than most other
lists, you have to really work your order of battle to buy only the things
that are effective for you. The army is just too expensive to carry any dead
weight. You also have quite a few units that you must buy that you will need
to find a task for on the battlefield. Again, they cost too much to be
sitting around doing nothing. If you really tweek your lists well, you can
have an army that plays well, and is just a blast to paint (Thats whats
important anyway, right?).

Well, that was probably WAY more than you asked for ... but what are friends
for!

See ya at six tonight ... I'm pumped to play Warrior!!!
