Warrior Ancient and Medieval Rules

[Tim Brown]

JOn,

Since I know you have nothing better to do, and you spent the time to
answer those flaming pigs questions, I had a few of my own buzzing in
my head:

If a chariot charges over caltrops, does it roll for getting a flat
and becoming disordered?

Do LI on foot accompanying an elephant take extra fatigue for
avoiding piles of dung?

Is there any restriction on the number of `stuff' given to a unit –
i.e. can it have both stakes and rocks if deployed on the appropriate
hill – the "sticks and stones" defense ?

What effect does giving camps flaming pigs cause, other than as an
incentive for hosting an unprompted luau ?

Horses: does the actual size variation difference 25/28mm affect
their depiction and performance – i.e. the age old question : does
size matter?

Do historically flaming homosexual units automatically cause disorder
or unease to any homophobic opponents - historical or otherwise ?

Can SHI from the appropriate geographical area use reeds as
snorkeling devices for crossing minor water features?

Those half naked Indian `Maidens'…can I buy those for any army..or me
for that matter?


Having fun,

Tim

I think this guy Tim should get some kind of award for best post on
this listserver, EVER. This really cracked me up. I'm all for realism.

My man, my main man. Good thinking. Thanks for a previously
undiscovered tricky Greek-type ruse (although I'm not sure how much
good it'll do- oh well, maybe it'll just keep the opponent off-
balance). I'm making a list of these ruses so as to have a wide and
unpredictable repertoire. These are beginning to seem like the ACME
stuff used by Wiley Coyote. Please send more as you think of them.
Personally, I can't wait for the rules to come out on setting terrain
features and such on fire!

Good show, Tim.

Only within 80p of a minor water feature.

If not in skirmish, yes.

Given what LIR foot carry? No.

It permits them to charge unprompted when shaken.

Oh yes. It does....

As an accused homophobe (which is unfair, as some of my best friends are
lesbians..) I am made uneasy by this question.

Only if not in flood.

Yup. Last page of this month's Soldier of Fortune magazine.

Me too.
