Dear All,

Trying to grasp the rules and develop a solid list...and I have decided to
give the Song a try...

Below is my first pass at an army list, I would appreciate any and all
feedback...thanks in advance!

The following is meant to be a 1600pt 15mm army...although this seems to be
only 1583 so far...also, I am not to sure on the command factor rule...I
purchased 11 regular command factors, one for each unit that did not have a
general/sub-general attached. "FL'" is fire lance, and the "x2" is the
number of shots...

Sample Southern Song Army
166 CinC 1 Reg A EHC L,B,Sh FL x2
192 Sub Gen 2 Reg A EHC L,B,Sh FL x2
144 Line Cav 3 Reg A EHC L,B,Sh FL x2
108 Line Cav 3 Reg C HC L,B,Sh FL x2
240 Spearmen 12 Reg D MI LTS,Sh FLx2
96 Spearmen 6 Reg D MI LTS FLx2
72 Swordsmen 6 Reg D MI 1HCW,Sh
252 Bowmen 42 Reg D LI B,Sh
24 Bowmen 6 Reg D LI B
40 Ditched Pal 2 ditched palisades
24 Caltrops 6 caltrops
100 Artillery 2 1 Talent Engine w/ 5 Reg C crew
15 Incendiary 10 1 shot for all artillery
110 Command 11 Reg command factors


1583

I then organized it into the following units:

1. CinC 2 xReg A EHC L,B,Sh FLx2, 1 x Reg C HC L,B,Sh FLx2
2. SubGen 2 xReg A EHC L,B,Sh FLx2, 1 x Reg C HC L,B,Sh FLx2
3. SubGen2 2 xReg A EHC L,B,Sh FLx2, 1 x Reg C HC L,B,Sh FLx2
4. Spear1 6 x Reg D MI LTS,Sh FLx2
5. Spear2 6 x Reg D MI LTS,Sh FLx2, 6 x Reg D MI LTS FLx2
6. Sword 6 x Reg D MI 1HCW, Sh
7. Bow1 6 x Reg D LI B,Sh; 6 x Reg D LI B
8. Bow2 6 x Reg D LI B,Sh
9. Bow3 6 x Reg D LI B,Sh
10. Bow4 6 x Reg D LI B,Sh
11. Bow5 6 x Reg D LI B,Sh
12. Bow6 6 x Reg D LI B,Sh
13 Bow7 6 x Reg D LI B,Sh
14 Artillery 2 x 1 Talent (5 Reg C Crew), Incendiary
Ditched Palisades x2 (each 6 elements)
Caltrops x 6 (each one element)

The idea was to use the temp fortifications (which can be placed in forward
zone, thanks free list rule!) to anchor one flank, hopefully also using
terrain to aide on one or both flanks. The artillery (very iffy purchase) is
there to help in anchoring a flank...so maybe a hill combined with the
palisades?

Then I would use the fire power of the Bowmen to soften up opponents for
(hopefully) EHC/spearmen charges. Not sure what to do with the Swordsmen,
but they are compulsory... :-)

Any thoughts on list construction and/or tactics will be greatly
appreciated!!!

Cheers,
Dan
