2.2 Book I and II armies. |

Any plans to move to 3.0? |

Why, would you attend if they did? |

Why, would you attend if they did? Bit difficult. There's a rather large pond in the way … NO not really. Any particular reason why not? |

We play 2.2 and like it a lot. |

2.2 is the Holy Grail of wargames rules. It is perfect in all ways. Pretty easy to figure out how to play. It is challenging and fun with a variety of armies. Approachable scale for collecting an army that is "complete" when painted and based as playable by the rules. A perfect system for trying other armies and if time/wallet/interest require you can collect as much as you want. |

A perfect system for trying other armies and if time/wallet/interest require you can collect as much as you want. All good points and I would say all of them are equally applicable to DBA 3.0.
Have you tried DBA 3.0 at all?
I'm just curious as to your reasons for sticking to 2.2 |
| Lions Den | 31 Mar 2015 10:29 a.m. PST |
Yes we have tried DBA 3.0. It is interesting. My reason for not switching is that DBA is not my only wargame. I play a lot of things. Time/wallet/interest again is contributing to me not having a copy of 3.0. Maybe someday. Currently really enjoying 2.2 and not into the fad of the new. I don't play tournaments much and am limited to what is available locally (my house) to regionally (Recruits convention, Mike's house and Omaha, NB) I have played DBA since the first edition.
I have 6 armies from 1st ed for the 1066 campaign
4 armies for Alexandrian Imperial 2.2ed.
3 armies for Feudal Europe 2.2 |

Looking around on the net and this is hard to even buy right now. |
