A classical hoplite encounter from the Peloponnesian War!
This one I have done "out of the box in DBA 3.0" so it was interesting to see how close my games played to it.
Notes: The Spears "flank +1" support seems to be the most notable element of the game. It also helps if you don't roll 1 in combat and for PiPS!
The ongoing adventures of a boy who never grew out of making and playing with plastic model kits (and even some metal ones too). Also a wargamer in search of the perfect set of wargaming rules for WWII Land and 20th Century Naval campaigns.

DBA Version 3.0: You Tube Video of DBA Battles - Athens v Persia (Early Achaemenid Persians)
Another good Tony Aguliar DBA Version 3.0 Rules run through:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWRVFq6oslY&t=4s
I have these armies ready to go, so I have no excuses bar a little bit of terrain and some decent camps!
Notes:
The "Hoard" 2 Pip rule was interesting and noticing which troops followed up.
The "Bow" shooting was interesting (you cannot ignore troops in your "Threat Zone".
The one comment that seems to come through with DBA is that it still fights as 12 elements rather than an army fighting as it did historically. The DBA rules from Version 1 through to 3 seem a volatile "cook-book".
I am just wondering how popular DBA 3 is over DBA 2 (if it is)?
