Thanks for quantifying. 50% plus is your assessment. That is not inconsistent with supply lines at all I would think. Where does this supply lines thing come from? Most biblical, ancient, and medieval armies did not have a line of supply. That concept doesn't really exist before the 16th century. S...

Right, I did explain it to them as noted and they get it, it's really important. I was looking more for clariication of the game decision about points towards victory. Their question was more about victory conditions and proportion to victory. So how important? Carry over from legacy systems or wit...

Teaching and playing Triumph! with experienced gamers new to the 'ancients' world has raised a number of questions I have not been able to answer completely. As an example, I have been asked why camps are important, what they represent, and isn't 50% of the victory conditions (more than that if it ...

Right, you have to put 24 pts in the center, and you have to fill that bucket with BL troops first. If your bucket is full (24 pts) and you still have BL troops, they can go anywhere (meaning left or right, not forward of the 8mu line). If your bucket isn't full and you run out of BL troops before y...

We hope to have Thisle and Rose Miniatures up and running in the next couple of months. We will be selling Basic Armies that will give players all the troops needed to make a Triumph! army. Part of the work we have been doing in bringing the line back over the last couple of years was researching e...

There is a bit of tension between having a database that can be updated or fixed without the need to be reprinted and "We are resistant to change, resistant, resistant." No real tension there -- what I'm saying is that the standard of evidence required to convince us of a change is signif...

Bill, thanks for your thoughtful feedback. Some quick responses interjected below. My apologies for any brevity -- I'm going to Canada in less than 24 hours, and a little rushed. Maybe you could post something on the Meshwesh page itself to tell readers the list changes that are in process. The proc...

Those notes are relics; the only two active status conditions now are draft and good. Draft lists are poop; good lists are good. There are only two or three draft lists, I think, of the 650+ lists overall. We'll be removing those status condition markers as soon as we get around to it -- our focus a...

Ainu Newer understood why army lists tend to focus on the Emishi and ignore the Ainu. Lack of information might be the reason, of course. That's cool information, Olivero. Following some of the links after reading the Wikipedia page on the Ainu, I found some more here with good maps: http://archive...

Of course, now i’ve moved on to Elves and Goblins (although you already gave us goblins.) Since we also have the Ancients line of Indians, Persians, and Greeks, I’ve started to review that line for Eastterlings and Haradrim. The books are pretty thin on guidance and our elephants are very very nice...
