Dicemanrick’s Little Guys Den

I created a Word document to print your armies on a standard 3″x5″ index card. It saves me a lot of time when registering at conventions, and I also keep them stored on my computer for easy access.

See my webpage here for details and the document. Download the document, edit it with your army details, and print away!

June’s DBA game day at Legion’s Hobbies started a liitle late, but there were six participants for gaming. Jim and Larry played the first game and John and Joe, veterans of StoogeCon, arrived later with Lauren (who wanted to learn the game). John and Joe paired off with Vikes and Irish, and I got into DBA “teach mode”.

We used my classic Matched Pairs of Medieval Germans and Italian non-littoral Condotta.

Condotta deploy..

Lauren deployed the attacking Condotta well, with knights concentrated on the right and two 8-man bow units menacing my horse. It was a see-saw battle for a long tine as neither one of us could roll a kill, but my psiloi was the first to go. I evened the score with a spear.

Then I lost a spear but shot a knight out of his saddle with my solitary bow. (I even warned her about my deadly archers!).  Game now 2-2. As normal, my German knights haplessly moved back and forth in combat, mostly losing, but not getting killed (for a change).

The crack archers proved the victors as they whacked two more knights in the following bounds….5:1 and 6:1 splits sure help!

Our game went long as she was learning the rules and our dice were both pretty bad, so Jim and John played (sorry, didn’t get the armies). My new veteran then matched wits with Joe on a Dark Ages Littoral fest…both armies choosing to land in a wild game.

Last Game!

The gamers at Legions

Last game of the night is to right. The waterway would spin to the right, so both armies chose to land…Viking blade marauders and wild Irish chariots!

I think the game ended about 11:15 or so with Joe getting the win.

Hope to see everyone again for the next game dayy in July!
