Thanks for the reply.

One use of camels that David didn't mention is Cyrus' supposed stratagem of mounting his cavalry on baggage camels to discomfit Lydian cavalry. Presumably another battle card if it's to be represented. Don't remember off-hand if we represent that -- it is one of the less bizarre of the "supposed Cy...

One critical aspect of the historical record was this -- in all cases except Tuaregs, armies that had a chance to switch from Camels to Horses as they got more wealthy and more successful, all did so. Was switching to horses ever a realistic option for Tuaregs? Keeping them in the central Sahara ca...

They presumably belong in the Sumerian Successor States.

Googling for images show a variety of armaments, but most are shieldless with moderately long spear. Not sure where my imprevious impression came from.

(Oddly, using the spelling "almogavar" shows fewer spears and more shields.)

Byzantine Menlavtoi (sp?) Menavlatoi (or Menaulatoi, depending on how you like to transliterate αυ in Byzantine Greek). A troop type I might have thought a good fit for Raiders is almughavars, but turns out they're Light Spears instead (at least in the Catalan Company list). I'm of the impression t...

Just out of curiosity, why are the bulk of a Strathclyde army classed as Spears? Their neighbours and enemies (Scots, Picts, Bernicians, Norsemen) are mostly footsloggers, so it seems slightly unexpected they'd be especially good at resisting cavalry, and in a history-based campaign or theme they'd ...

At the end of a turn, a side wins the game if it has destroyed at least half of its opponent’s troops and has lost fewer points of troops than its opponent. In regular Triumph!, the citeria are destroying 1/3 of the enemy's points and having lost fewer oneself. Here, the enemy's losses are apparent...

I was surprised to discover that "Scandinavian" doesn't find the Union of Kalmar list (sometimes known as the "Scandinavian Union" to wargamers). I might suggest it should find also Medieval Swedish and the Viking lists.

Epaminondas style Hoplite rear support still exists where appropriate in the army lists as a Battle Card, but we had missed the fact that all such Hoplites were now rated as Heavy Foot, or in rare cases Elite Foot. Now fixed. Warrior went down from +2 rear support to +1. Warband went down from +1 r...
