DBA 3.0 Polybian Roman Army

Ultimate slice & dice action with one of my favorite armies, the Polybian Romans.  Blade heavy with Spear back-up.  The DBA 3.0 lists allow 2 bases of Auxilia as Allied Troops.  Very simple army, but very effective.

DBA 3.0 - IV/62 100 Years War English

Monstrous..!!!! Gigantic...!!! Titanic...!!! No, it's not Britain's National Debt...(according to the government oohh eerr).  It's the new DBA 3.0 100 Years War English Army lists.

Lots of archers as you would expect, but now a LOT more Knights.  The option (A) List reflects this especially, with a standard 4 Knight elements & the option for 3 more.

We've put together 2 Armies, one to keep for ourselves & the other is up for grabs on EBay.

DBA 3.0 II/69B Sassanid Persians

Put this lot together for sale on EBay.  A lot of the figures are old school Minifigs.  The elephant is a plastic one from a HATT box set (6 elephants for less than a tenner, well worth it).  the tent is a conversion from Renandra.  Lots of 'pastel' colours, for the mighty Sassanids.  The banners we created ourselves & here is the link to the original post :

DBA Low Countries vs Teutons

Medieval action now, the Teutonic Grand Master has decided that the route of all evil can be found in the base debauchery of capitalism.   His gaze descends on the Merchants of the Low Countries.  A Crusade is called, the Teutonic masses board their ships & head for Ghent.  The Merchants & Guildsmen, raise their banners, ready to defend their interests.  Our last games of DBA 2.2????  Amy took the Teutons, yours truly the Guildsmen.

WE WILL ROUTE OUT EVIL!!!!!

Well despite sneaky Amy, sticking another element into her Army, the mighty Low Countries won through.
