This campaign provides some context to a DBM battle set in Spain (Iberia) during the Second Punic War. The main protagonists are the Romans and Carthaginians, however, Iberian levies feature as well.
DBx
The DBx family of rules includes HOTT, DBA, DBM, and DBR. I’m still rather fond of DBA and HOTT. Not that they are good simulations but they are quick and fun. This speed makes them a good basis for one day campaigns, e.g. Britannia 600 AD. And with some tweaks I’ve managed to make DBA work for the New World – my variant is called New World DBA.
