You were asked – TMP link Which ruleset do you feel provides the most historically accurate results? 12% said "Tactica"
11% said "To the Strongest!"
10% said "DBA" |

I would say Historical Battle DBA over all… But, Tactica II does a good job with Ancients as well… Good job!… to both Phil and Arty! Joe Collins |

And don't forget 48% said none of these. |

These poll results always seem to come out wacky, IMO. |

Cherry picked is the term that comes to mind I think |

How would any of the respondents even know if any of these rules are historically accurate? |

They may have tried to recreate an actual historical battle using the rules. This is done every year at the Society of Ancients Battle day. Here a specific battle is chosen and fought using a number of different rule sets. Last year for Telamon, 12 sets were used. I've always been pleased with Historical DBA. soa.org.uk/joomla/battle-day This year it's the Battle of Bosworth field :) |
