Howdy,
I've read DBV and felt curious and willing to try it, but first I wanted to know if there is any fan army lists somewhere, and also some graphics explaining moves and the like or further added material. I really appreciate any help anyone could give :) BTW, didn't Richard Bodley Scott write some skirmish rules similar to DBV? |

This set felt like PB pushing DBx into a setting that it didn't really work for. However, if he had devoted more energy to it there may have been an interesting outcome. I have never heard of anybody playing the game – I think we were waiting to see where it would end up. (No idea if RBS wrote anything similar). Regards David F Brown |

I agree with you as it is something unfinished but with possibilities.
I saw a battle report in a blog yesterday so somebody played it.
Thank you for your help, David.
Cheers,
J. |

It's a pretty good ruleset (IMHO) – it needs a little editing and had a few typos but nothing that a bit of thinking can't fix. There were some articles in Lone Warrior a few years ago, so some people are playing it. |

DBV? I have not heard of these. Even as a regular DBMM player. What are they? |

Hmm… they used to be on the WRG pages as a free Work In Progress. But they seem to have been removed. |
