Agreed. I know that Mike is planning some. I've already started one.
I actually had a simple one at the battle. But, I think I forgot to show
it to anyone. I may email Mike and volunteer to do the charts for BW2000.

Those were a lot of fun, but I should have curbed myself a bit. But, I
still like the tree stunt.

I think we can simplify this alot. For the most part, if the model can
do it, its ok. A little common sense and ignore the rules.
I ran through the rules again that night. We were skipping a lot of AV
modifiers. What surprise me the most was when I realized that I probably
would have slaughtered the lot of you if we knew them all. The most
significant were 1. We (at least I) were doing opportunity fire all
wrong. 2. I forgot to account for any of my armor and such for AV. 3.
We (I?) were unaware of the AV bonus for moving targets.
Full speed mounted troops are rather hard to hit. I would have sent in
several waves of knights attacking your biggest units very early. It
certainly would have been a much more interesting battle.
I would like to propose a 1-1 ratio for TL2/3 troops vs TL4/5 troops for
our next meeting. Somehow, I doubt that anyone will object.
Later,
