TEXNE TAKTIKE
The Art of Tactics
by Luke Ueda-Sarson
I am currently working on a set of ancients wargaming rules for large
battles, designed at three levels of complexity. I will be
demonstrating their principles, at the lowest level of complexity, in
the evenings during NatCon, and will be organising a demonstration
battle on the Monday incorporating some of the more advanced rules
and features.
Those interested in taking part should contact me at:
Some of the ideas behind the rules can be summarised as:
Units are a single bases representing from 250 to 2000 troops
Large troop bases to enable diorama-like effects on each base
Very limited player control over troops compared to most sets of rules.
The Monday battle will probably be a Hellenistic-period affair using
15mm figures.
