looks at some new terrain products, which use space age technology!
The DBA Development Team and Friends are happy to announce the publishing of Great Battles of History for DBA 3.
This is a book of twelve historical scenarios, ranging from Gela in 405 BC to Enguingatte in 1479 AD, that showcases DBA 3's strength in refighting historical battles. Written by some of the leading DBA gamers across the world, each scenario has a short history, complete OB, map of the terrain, and a photographed narrative play-through. These refights use the Historical Battle rules found in the DBA 3 rulebook and are scaled to be in easy reach of the average gamer or club.
This 134-page, full-color book is available from Lulu.com for $34.97 USD. You can find it here.
For places outside of Lulu's shipping area, the book will be available worldwide through Amazon at $49.95 USD in a few weeks.
Monies earned for the first year on the book in excess of $150.00 USD (the startup cost for the editor) will be donated to the Society of Ancients in honor of Phil and Sue Barker.
For those on a tight budget or who would like a complete preview, the book in its entirety will soon be available for free as a download from Keith McNelly's website.
I hope everyone enjoys Great Battles of History for DBA 3 as much as I enjoyed putting it together.
Thanks to Charlie, Bob, John, Graham, Robert, Phil, James and Tom for directly contributing…
Also thanks to Joseph Collins, Doug Melville, Pat Lowinger, Dr. Dave Cliffel, the rather misnamed Nashville Track & Hull Club, and especially Keith McNelly…. You guys are terrific too!
