Warrior Ancient and Medieval Rules

[John Murphy]

I would like to put my 2 cents in on this, which is about all it will
be worth to anyone I am afraid.

I believe Boyd has cut to the heart of the issue (look up his last
post, I prefer not to leave lengthy quotes in line which I know never
fails to irritate at least one person on this list).

I personally am looking forward to trying a 1200 point Warrior mini on
a "normal" table size. I think I'll like the manuever room though, and
don't take this wrong, I've never liked the way TOG's march moves seem
to work out except that they make a quicker game. I've often wondered
why some tourney organizer hasn't done this with table sizes before
since one usually has at least that much table space anyway and it
seems artificial to restrict the players and not use it.

I also think I'll like the greater difficulty my opponents will have
in creating those killer anti-my-army army lists (or maybe it always
just seems like that for some strange reason). I often stick with a
single list for tournaments anyway wether a second one is allowed or
not. The TOG minis were a start (for me) at solving this but frankly
it always seemed to me like there's just too many bastardized lists
from different sources out there that give you way too many options
(this, and the requirement to lookup the factor/casualty tables, are
in my belief why 7th lost some players to DBM - much more so than
playing time which is equivalent anyway) and Warrior is going a long
way to closing this gap in list flexibility as well.

Myself, my ideal version of Warrior would probably be an absurd
extension of this concept - 25mm Fast Warrior played on an 8' x 5'
table!:)

But I do really hope that the idea of minis on open-size tables
catches on and keeps hold.
