FOG 800pt Game Punic Wars


First 'official' FOG game today using my Mid-Republican Romans vs Stephens Carthaginians


Much more enjoyable than beta game but still not that enthused by FOG

Slow moves, slow attritional nature of fights and lack of C&C compare unfavourably with more exciting and decisive Dbmm games.

But much better written rules with most queries answered in text (even if lots of toing and froing to find things)


Not 4 times better than Dbmm despite 4 times the cost.........................

Dbmm 400pts Polybian Roman vs Carthaginian

Dbmm 400pt game on Sat 1/3/08 at Stephens

Really excellent game with exciting Warband vs Blade battle in centre.
Very close game.

Another loss of course...................
