15mm Later Italian Condotta

Hi all,

Re: Skirmishers shattering Elephants

We classify stands into buckets. Everything must go into a bucket; nothing can go into two buckets. We turn the infinitely varied and complex historical world (about which we have very limited information) into a discrete set of 16-18 stand types. (...) So what are you asking? I am asking for a des...

Re: Skirmishers shattering Elephants

So LtFt/Raiders are fighting in their ranks and do not have any skirmish...

Skirmishers shattering Elephants

In my last game playing Later Carthos in Spain versus Iberians, I lost all of my three elephant stands in close combats versus enemy skirmishers. My opponent had cleverly managed to have an overlap in each of these fights, thus enhancing his chances to shatter my ellies. While I ungrudgingly acknowl...

Re: Proposed 15mm Sumerian Range (by Eureka)

My 15mm miniature armies collection is very low on biblical era representatives. This being the perfect excuse to order another bunch of minis, I have pledged to buy figures for a Gilgamesh Era Sumerian Triumph! army. Hoping very much this range is going into production.

happy new year,

Providing overlap

A question about providing overlaps: https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-TjnO32DorMU/WftAC2NjBmI/AAAAAAAADZA/YG-csJMqs0osI-a6rXmKC73IW-9L9AwrgCKgBGAs/s640/Triumph_overlap_question.JPG C attacks B in three different situations. In all three cases the question is: Does A provide an overlap to C? The overlaps r...

Update of Template for the setup phase of a Triumph! game

Based on my experiences and to reflect the minor changes in version 07 (October 2017) of the Triumph! rules, I have adapted my setup template and named it V 0.4. You can find it here: https://minimaerk.blogspot.ch/2017/09/template-for-setting-up-triumph-game.html#more Any comments and suggestions to...

Forming a column

DBA 2.2 allowed forming a column as a group move: "A group move can include reducing frontage to form such a column (...)". I do not find any reference to the forming of a column in the tactical movement section of the Triumph! rules. I assume that in Triumph! a column must be formed by individual t...
