Punic War 3 – A Field of Glory Battle Report
This is the third Field of Glory game that Chris Harrod and I have tried. I took Later Carthaginian and Chris took Mid Republican Roman. In fact all three games have been with the Later Carthaginian and Mid Republican Roman 600 point Starter Armies. All have been good games and seemlngly good simulations of Punic War battles. On the down side they have been quite slow. 5.5 hours for the first one and 4.5 hours for the second – both of which were played to completion. We only had 3.5 hours for the third game and didn’t come near a conclusion – I think we only played 4 turns each.
Battle of Ilipa 206 BC
Back in 2001 I wrote up some notes about Ilipa (206 BC) based on articles in Slingshot by John Gerson (Gerson, 1983). The notes aren’t specific to any rules but I was thinking of using them for Field of Glory.
Seleucid in Field of Glory – The Significance of 205 BC
The Seleucid army within Field of Glory are covered by two lists depending on the date, with 205 BC as the dividing line.
Steven’s Seleucid Army for Field of Glory
I’m interested in the Rise of Rome and was very happy to pick up Ian Galley’s beautiful Selucid army when he wanted to move to other projects. This army has done service under WRG 6, WRG 7, DBM but more recently using Field of Glory.
Steven’s Later Carthaginian Army for Field of Glory
I’m interested in the Punic Wars and Roman conquest of Hispania (240 – 20 BC) and Carthaginian was my first ancients army. But that was 20mm and plastic. Now I’m a 15mm guy so I’ve been building up Carthaginian army for the period for 20 years. The army has done service under DBM but more recently using Field of Glory.
Steven’s Mid Republican Roman Army for Field of Glory
I’m interested in the Punic Wars and Roman conquest of Hispania (240 – 20 BC) and Carthaginian was my first ancients army. But that was 20mm and plastic. Now I’m a 15mm guy so I’ve been building up Carthaginian army for the period for 20 years. The army has done service under DBM but more recently using Field of Glory.
Republican Roman Light Foot in Field of Glory
Under DBM and earlier WRG games the Republican Roman light foot started as spear and Javelin guys then got upgraded to Javeliin and Shield guys in the Second Punic War. But Field of Glory does it differently. This has implications for the Mid Republican Starter Army.
