What is Ancient Rules: Ionia to Carthage – 546BC to 146BC
When I set out to write this set of rules I wanted to do something a bit different. I wanted to concentrate more on the men than the weaponry. So while equipment is important, drill and discipline can be equally important. Also I wanted to ensure troops couldn’t manoeuvre more than their historical counterparts.
And I wanted rules where you weren’t faced with rebasing figures. All units are on an 80mm frontage. I tend to use two 40mm frontage bases on an 80mm sabot base. But provided both sides have approximately the same base size it doesn’t matter. Indeed 28mm on 120mm bases works well.
Finally I wanted the rules to integrate into wargames campaigns. So whilst you can fight ‘one off’ battles, you will get more from these rules if you start with the wargames campaign and watch your armies grow and improve, Or alternatively, fail spectacularly as you’re forced to pad out the numbers with more and more poorly trained and inadequately remunerated levies.
Because I wanted to provide a full campaign background, the rules include a section covering naval warfare as well.
