These are the WRG 6th Edition lists, correct to 11 September 1982. I have retyped them, and attempted to find and correct any previous typos. Any changes from the previously released lists are corrections to typographic errors. (Or new typos on my part!). (This is the original list, and these are the corrections, and these are the NASAMW corrections).

List 76. Palmyran (Dry) AD260- 272
C-in-C mounted on horse as SHC, L, or as EHC, HC, L, JLS, Sh, @ 100 pts 1
PA standard to accompany C-in-C, @ 30 pts 0-1
Sub-general mounted on horse as SHC, L, @ 50 pts 0-4
Roman sub-general mounted on horse as HC, JLS, Sh, @ 50 pts *1
Palmyran cavalry "Reg C" HC, L, Sh, @ 10 pts 0-72
Extra to upgrade Palmyran cavalry to EHC, 0-1/2 B, @ 0 pts, rest L, Sh, @ 2 pts 0-1/2
Extra to upgrade Palmyran cavalry to SHC, @ 6 pts if HC or EHC, B, or @ 4 pts if EHC, L, Sh all/0
Extra to upgrade Palmyran cavalry to "Reg B", @ 1 pt 0-48
Regular light cavalry "Reg C" LC, JLS, B, Sh, @ 10 pts 0-12
Volunteer light cavalry "Irr B" LC, B, @ 5 pts 0-20
Regular archers "Reg C" LMI or LI, B, @ 3 pts 20-48
Extra to give Sh to regular archers, @ 1 pt any
Irregular archers "Irr C" LI, B, @ 2 pts 0-30
Caravan guards "Irr C" HCm, JLS, B, Sh, @ 13 pts 0-10
Light bolt-shooter with "Reg C" crew of 2, @ 20 pts 0-2
Roman cavalry "Reg C" HC, JLS, Sh, @ 10 pts *5-12
Roman Moorish cavalry "Reg C" LC, JLS, Sh, @ 8 pts 0-6
Roman legionaries "Reg C" MI, HTW, Sh, @ 5 pts *24-56
Roman auxiliaries "Reg C" LMI, JLS, Sh, @ 4 pts *24-56
Border horse archers "Reg D" LC, B, @ 5 pts 0-12
Arabs "Irr D" up to ˝ LCm, JLS or B, Sh, @ 4 pts, rest LC, JLS, Sh, @ 6 pts 0-30
Up to 18 Regular Command Factors @ 10 pts
Up to 10 Irregular Command Factors @ 25 pts
This list covers the whole period of Palmyran independence. Minimums marked * apply only if any of the troops referred to as Roman are used. Wargamers refighting the battles between Zenobia and Aurelian should not use such troops, and their Roman opponents should not use SHC or any troops with bows. Romans should not use Arabs unless they already have won at least one previous battle. An unaccompanied Palmyran army fights best in open or gently rolling terrain. Its most effective tactic is a thundering cataphract charge shot in by massed archers. Beware of using so many ancillary troops as to deprive yourself of sufficient cataphracts or distract you from deploying them properly. Romans are most useful in closer terrain. The reason they are classed as sub-ordinate instead of allies is that Odenathus was formally appointed commander of Roman forces in the east by Gallienus. Roman legionaries can fight in wedge. We tend to forget that Palmyrans here Arabs; as such, they now start as HC, L, more typical of the Arabs. The option to upgrade to mixed EHC units reflects the Parthian/Sassanid influence. The SHC option recognizes the reality that most gamers have the more traditional SHC figures.
