Warrior Ancient and Medieval Rules

Scott (or possibly Jon, but probably Scott):

I have a question about the Russ list in the Dark Age Warrior book. It says
that the Russ C-in-C may be bought as either HI or LHI. If bought as LHI,
any bodyguard elements that are bought as part of the C-in-C must be bought
as Varangian warriors. So, here are a few questions assuming I want to buy a
LHI C-in-C:

1. Must I buy a Varangian contingent, i.e., do I need to buy the minimum #
of Varangians?
2. Do I need to buy the Varangian Ally-General?
3. Since the C-in-C is now Varangian-like, can he command Varangian troops
too (other than his own body, of course)?

Thanks. There is no rush on this, as I don¹t plan on playing this army at
Historicon.

I have a question about the Russ list in the Dark Age Warrior book. It says
that the Russ C-in-C may be bought as either HI or LHI. If bought as LHI,
any bodyguard elements that are bought as part of the C-in-C must be bought
as Varangian warriors. So, here are a few questions assuming I want to buy a
LHI C-in-C:

1. Must I buy a Varangian contingent, i.e., do I need to buy the minimum #
of Varangians?
>Yes. Page 62 of DAW states that if the CinC is LHI, then the Varangian allies
must be used and if the CinC is in more than a single element body, then he must
be in a body of Varangian Warrios.

2. Do I need to buy the Varangian Ally-General?
>Yes.

3. Since the C-in-C is now Varangian-like, can he command Varangian troops
too (other than his own body, of course)?
>Yes.

Thanks Scott. I should never try and ask a question frommemory, as soon as I
went home I immediately looked up page 64. But I did not know the correct
answer to question number 3, so I learned something. Thanks again.
