I've just created a small list consisting of the tentative Tome III Index - American Armies.

Arcane Battle Composer

The number of army lists is comparatively small and investigations have continued in the background, thanx to the work of Carlos Diniz (including the information he is collecting from Mexico experts). Given the absence of a tangible technological evolution - plus the lack of mounted troops - he opted to classify the lists according to geography: in this instance, I completely agree. So we have the lists arranged from a truly American perspective, not from a Eurocentric view.

I've tried to find some missing links, but all of my 'findings' were already there, so I'll quit for the moment! Maybe you remember some missing warring American peoples?
