The Bronze Age

 

 

 

Our first threepeat Theme event. This is still probably the best looking tournament we ever do mainly because of all those wheels. The DBM army lists shown here are those used in the last Bronze Age tourney held in 1996 so again, let me remind you that such lists are tentative and might change.  The WARRIOR army lists are from BIBLICAL WARRIOR and supersede older lists.

19 Mycenaean/Minoan Greek 1700 BC – 1150 BC: If the Rash Ally-general is used, it never takes waver tests and fights until destroyed.  If it is joined to the Myrmidons, it still does not take waver tests although they can but the Ally's element ignores any resulting actions of failed Myrmidon waver tests.  If the Ally's element is destroyed, the Myrmidons take a waver test at -1 regardless of where they are on the battlefield.  This -1 is in addition to any other minuses that might occur along with the associated waver test(s).  ALL other units take a regular waver test if within 720 paces of the destroyed Rash Ally.
