Any suggestions welcome
Currently I have the following complete armies

Viking
Russ
Pecheneg
Byzantine
Camillan Roman (Spelling?)
and can make up lots of others from these but looking for something
a bit different and with a bit of clout AND both regular A/B and
irregular A/B if possible :)

Depends on what you want out of the army I'd think. If you want
manuver with missile fire and some heavy mounted punch, then I'm
thinking Nikephorian Byzantine. If you want P and El, then Selucid
or Alexander Imperial. If you are like me and want to find a tiny,
highly motivated, super armed/armored force capable of winning, then
good luck Smile If you just want crazys, then Arab conquest is good.

Just as a giggle, try something that is a pain to paint like Gauls. Smile

What about Teutonics. This satisfies your Reg/Irr A/B issue, and the
new list in Feudal has some infantry that is worth the effort.

Are you thinking 15mm or 25mm?

Thanks ... g

Early Polish has my attention lately. LMI,LTS,B,Sh in huge numbers
with some Reg C German knights and some HI,2HCT,Pa/MI,Jls,sh. Plus
its pretty unusual. Doesn't fit the Reg A/B requirement though.

Good luck,
Wes

Itallian Condotta. It has enough options to it to give you anything you want
besides elephants. But a very wise man that runs a little wargame store out of
his house in Simsbury Conn. once told me, "Kelly, if an army doesn't have
something that causes unease like chariots or elephants, it aint worth play'n!"
Mr. proto-Vietnamese himself! Ofcourse this is the same person who when asked
what other thing makes a certain army great replied, "Well, they get JSL and
what more do you need?!" .. . um, how about armor. . . Those were the good old
days! Right Jake. In all fairness, Jake usually does very well with this sort of
army and I even borrowed it for the NICT one year and came in 3rd or 4th. If I
had only played my game a bit smarter against Chris Damour!!! Imagine both
players force marching everything to the center of the board and watching units
disentegrating before our eyes on bound 1! That was a very ugly round. . . UGH!!
