BTW "winning" is, evidently, of great importance to some but we 'real wargamers' know, most of the fun is in the spectacle, in the comradeship and in the feeling we're re-creating history

We played a ficton game Marius Romans against Gauls. Rules etc. must be specified by Mr. Andrea who is the master of the game.

You don't get away that easily.

We used DBA 3.0 ruleset. Marian Romans II/49 vs Gallics II/11. Two matches, we plays the Romans in turn, with the Romans always been the defender. Not much highlights: it was mainly test matches, to familiarized with the rules. I can say Jan learned fast and lost the second game just because of my lucky dice. His legionaries caught my Gauls in a mortal grip, from which they could only escape thanks to their bravery (and a long series of 5 and 6).
I promise a more detail report for the next matches. It will be Punic wars. I see elephants stomping legionaries
