DBM was once the king of the Ancients tournament scene. Now, its popularity has waned. What did you do with your DBM armies? |

Where Are Your DBM Armies Now? Unless they've shinnied down the drainpipe and legged it to the pub for a quick one, and maybe a curry after, I'm assuming they're still in the cupboard where I left them. |

are you still using them for DBM? |

Only had one full DBM army, Alexandrian Macedonians. It is in a box on my shelf. I've been tempted to sell it off. I did take part of it and use for a separate army. |

Using them to play DBA 3.0 & ADLG. |

I only had two DBM armies, for Hittite Empire and HYW English. Still using the figures for DBA 3.0 and used them for FOG-AM when I was playing that. Fortunately the basing scheme for these figures is near universal for all but a few element-based Ancients rules. |

Tend to use a weird mix of DBA and DBM – basically DBA rules but allow Superior/Inferior troop types. |

I have mounted mine on sabots (usually 4 elements each) and use them for either Impetus or Sword & Spear. Not tempted to totally rebase them. I think the DBM basing standard still has potential and will be used in future rules yet to come. |

There was never, ever a DBM army in the house. There were a lot of castings on WRG 40mm and 60mm stands--and still are. I like DBA and HOTT, but even if something better came along, I'm not rebasing. |

Using them for "To the Strongest", "Sword & Spear", "Field of Glory" and DBA. |

Collecting dust in large storage boxes. I should sell them. Friends that were opponents either moved away or moved on to other periods. |

They are now DBMM armies and getting a bit of usage. |
| goragrad | 07 Feb 2017 7:43 p.m. PST |
Never quite got to the point of a DBM army, but if I had they would be doing what the DBA armies do – being used for DBA and Big Battle DBA. When DBMM lists get updated I'll look at them. LADG might be an option as well. |
| Shaun Travers | 09 Feb 2017 2:15 a.m. PST |
Using them with other rules – with no rebasing. |

DBM armies never actually got to be DBM armies,same as DBA armies never got to be DBA ones. Liked the idea but I was never a DBX player |
