This page collects suggested tests via refights/historical encounters for the draft DBMM rules.
It is hoped to collect OOBs, scearios and AARs here so that other players can also try to
reproduce the results.
Suggestions so far are:
Spanish vs Moors/Andalusians
John E: since that
pits Reg Sp(O) (Murabit) and (I) (Andalusian) and Irr Sp(I)
(post-Murabit Moors) vs Kn(F), (O) and (I) (as well as the Sp of various
types against each other). I'll be attempting to find time to try some
of these out.
Armies:
> Andalusian
> 1st Command (high PIPs)
> 3 Reg Cv(O) Sub-General
> 12 Reg Sp(I) with 6 supporting Irr Ps(O)
> 2 Irr LH(O)
> 2 Irr LH(F)
> 8 Irr Ax(O) with 8 supporting Irr Ps(O)
> 3 Irr Ps(S) with 3 supporting Irr Ps(O)
>
> 2nd Command (middle PIPs)
> 3 Reg Cv(O) Sub-General
> 12 Reg Sp(I) with 6 supporting Irr Ps(O)
> 1 Irr LH(O)
> 5 Irr Ps(S) with 5 supporting Irr Ps(O)
>
> 3rd Command (low PIPs)
> 4 Reg Kn(F) CinC
> 2 Reg Cv(O)
> Baggage command
> 6 Irr Bge(F)
Spanish
1 Command comprising:
3 Irr Kn(F) including CinC
1 Bge(S) standard
3 Irr Bd(O)
1 Reg Bd(O)
6 Irr Ps(O)
13 Irr Ps(I)
ME25.5 D6.5 B9 S13
2 commands, each of:
8 Irr Kn(F) including Sub-General
3 Irr Cv(O)
3 Irr LH(O)
6 Irr Sp(I) with Ps support
4 Irr Bw(I)
4 Irr Ps(I)
ME 32.5 D 8.5 B 11 S 16.5
Army ME 90.5 B45.5
Etruscans, Campanians etc vs Latins
John E: Etruscans, Campanians etc vs
Latins, because that means Sp(S), (O) and (I), Bd(O) and (I) in various
combinations.
La Forbie
lau_hohlong: La Forbie would be a good Cv v Kn test. FWIW, a v1.0 "based on" at equal points
showed Kn(O) more than a match for pipped-up RegCv S and O - I danced, I feigned
flight, I flanked, I overlapped - and died in droves.
First Battle of Singara, 344AD,
adriancoombshoar: I shall be doing a refight of the First Battle of Singara, 344AD,
Constantius II vs Sharpur II, probably at 240AP scale on 24th January
(which is incidently my birthday). This will a good test of Irreg Cv(S).
Italiot Hoplites
Lawrence G: Based on recent discussion, I suggest that useful lessons could be learned from
full games with Italiot Hoplites as Sp(I) and as Sp(O) versus the same selection
of neighbours,
Romans
Lawrence G:also various Romans with different mixes of (I) (O) and (S)
blades versus their historical opponents including each other.
Battle of Strasburg 357AD
adriancoombshoar: I will also be doing a refight of the Battle of Strasburg 357AD, Julian vs The
Barbarians! 240AP again. This will test out Warband vs Blades.
Minoan vs Hittite Empire
rob b: will try this as it has a lot of I troops on both sides. Plus it is mainly a mounted vs foot battle.
