Hello, this is a project that me and two friends have started with the idea of spreading DBA into the Spanish speakers community as well as getting more players in our city.

As you know, DBA is written in English and mainly played in UK and USA and moreover, it is written in Barkerese, so it is really difficult for non-native English speakers to understand and play this game, and even more difficult to reach new players, being DBA so niche and with that format as opposed to other modern rulesets.

In Spain there is a great community of DBA 2.2 thanks to the wonderful translation and support with many annual tournaments from the guys of La Armada forum, but we play 3.0.

When I started to look for videos of DBA 3.0 battles, I could only find games in English, so I thought we could do the same as some people from La Armada are doing with the 2.2 version, a Youtube channel for Spanish speakers in which we are going to share our games as well as some tutorials for beginners.

Although it is in Spanish, everybody is most than welcomed to our channel as you can easily switch on subtitles and then set your mother language. As an extra bonus, you can also practice and learn some Spanish when listening to the reports ;-)

Our first video is not very good as we have never done this before, but the second is better and third which we are releasing next Sunday will be better.

Thanks for visiting us and for your support!

Ps. We have also created a Facebook group to help us with the spreading of DBA in Spanish that you can visit here: DBA espaņol Facebook group: link

Cheers,

Well done. You may want to check out the DBF group that is in Spain. They are on the Facebook page.

Great idea! I'm in the US, and I was advised that the best plan was to try and get somebody to show me how to play the game.

@ Joe Collins, I cannot find it, can you pass me link or give name of the group please?

@Grelber, I'd say the only way to learn how to play DBA is playing with somebody to show you. Video reports can help.
BTW, there is a guy from Texas I think, who has been doing video reports of DBA 3.0 in English, so you can check those too.
Cheers,

Do a search on

De Bellis Fantasiae

That should allow you to find the Facebook group.

There is also a website.

Joe Collins, I already did that, did it again and I cannot find any group of DBF in Spain or in Spanish. Thanks anyway.

Congratulations with posting DBA3 games in Spanish, this is
a useful method to refresh one's knowledge of the language.

Like chess, DBA3 is an easy game to learn, but to master it
will take a long time.

I noticed one aspect of the rules I had overlooked, so thank
you for uploading your videos.

Posting this to the Fanaticus Forum may also attract attention.

Thank you for your best wishes Tumurilank!

I had already thought about posting it in Fanaticus but I just hadn't got the time yet, but I'll do it :)

Oh that one! I am member of it. Actually, I uploaded the rules for the Arthurian army (Sub Roman Britain) ;-)
