Not seeing many posts lately. Are these rules no longer that widely played? Or just not posted often here? |

The successors to WAB are played in pretty localized areas. They're good games, just been drowned out in a deluge of ancients rules. I've mostly done CoE but I;ve seen some WaC stuff on here and there. Neither has done as well as Hail Caesar, which is a different style. |

… and which rides the Warlord commercial juggernaut and has the imprematur of Rick Priestly upon its name. |

WR seconds Mars Ultor
Hail Caesar and Clash of Empires (CoE) in this neck of the woods. Haven't seen a W&C game yet. They are out there someplace. WR thinks the BP movement like system which W&C uses just doesn't feel right with ancients. |

I played W@C but wasn't too sure about the weighted dice throws, I found it a bit clunky. However, I can't remember a 'BP' type movement system. Apart from a command roll if you want to march within a set distance of the enemy, I thought you were free to move as required? |

Henry Martini – I was thinking the same thing when I wrote that. Bingo. HC got a lot of momentum off of the names, which is not the best of qualifications. Haven't played it, but it must have its merits. |

I have the rules and they look the most akin to WAB, which I did enjoy. Where can one find army lists? Or do players just make their own? I'm not planning on any competition type play. |

I like it and play it solo.
Unfortunately, I live about a gazillion miles from any other gamer |

Played a lot of WaC for a while, but had some issues with lists and found some of the rules (mainly leadership based) took away the excitement of a good game, so went back to WAB. |

I discovered them two years ago and have never regretted it, you can find a lot of reports etc. here link |

I just got the WaC book in the mail yesterday. It is gorgeous from cover to cover. If the rules are decent then its a winner as far as I'm concerned. I'm finishing a Carthaginian army and then I plan to revamp my Republican Roman army. Any potential opponents in the Charlotte NC area? |
