Are you looking for a 2mm set? |
Kiwiee | 28 Aug 2022 3:02 p.m. PST |
Thank you for your Help. I got 2mm Minitatures, but i don't need specifically rules for them, I am sure I can adjust the rules for 2mm |

The Strength and Honor Rules are to Basic for me, i need a little bit more detailed Fights. I dont mind complex rules with multiple charts for one Combat. |

Kiwiee What 2mm miniatures did you acquire? Thinking about maybe trying smaller scales for huge battle fields. Thanks Bob PS Besides Roman, are there a lot of other periods in 2mm? |

I printed the minis from projectwargaming.com. He has Ancients, Medival and Napoleonics |

DBA would work. You could many 2mm figures to a stand and make the game look great. |

I am rather fond of Strategos/Lost Battles. Fairly crunchy but more in the command system than anything else. Uses a grid and elements so works for any size of figure and any basing scheme. |

I believe many rule sets would work – maybe some with small adjustments. Strength and Honour is written specifically with small scale (2mm) figures in mind. To the Strongest uses a grid so is more figure size agnostic that most. |

@Kiwiee Fighting against Rome in 2mm has been my sole interest for the last 20 years, after all those years in the wilderness 2022 has proved to be a fantastic year. Tactical units being the maniple then later the cohort so when you say detailed combats I imagine you mean at this level. If that's the case then it's easily covered by any rule set using elements. With you finding Strength and Honour too basic might I suggest Bella Contra Barbaros by Michael Collins, they cover nearly every aspect of Roman warfare. Only available as a PDF file. link |
