I am thinking about boats. Bill L gave me this idea in the Sicilian Campaign game.
How does one buy a boat.??
I have been looking at the rules(surprise, surprise )
It says that it is a point for each fighting fig. But then it says that you adjust your list for the cost.
If I wanted to put a 4El unit of Peltasts on a boat. So would it be :
A) 90pts for the boat and the unit is free
B) 90pts for the boat and 90pts for the unit, total 180pts
C) Make a deal with Cilician Pirates, and hope they show up on the coast.

16 points for the peltasts - I believe it is a point per figure - but check - and then you remove 16 points from a unit.
With preset terrain this is not going to work well unless you are playing the pre- flood Noah theme
Unless it counts as a fortress or defended obstacle -
All the best |

We had pre-set terrain at Cold Wars and Rich "boated" up some Vikings.
Not sure how that was done procedurally.

THERE IS A PRE-FLOOD NOAH THEME!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG......
Scott!! What lists does that encompass??????
I think I will build early Nimrodian army
Back to point(surprising for Kollmer)
So
a) 16pts for the Peltasts in the boat and subtract 16pts from list, thereby losing some figs from a any unit
b) 16pts for the Peltasts in the boat , then subtract 16pts from the Peltast in the list
c) Continue to try getting the Cilician Pirates and continue to pray they show.
