funny you should mention pike and shot... just painted up a scots batalia epic box as I dip into the period. Will upload a video soon of them. similar basing...large bases for pike block and the rectangle ones for other units.

A unit thst loses melee against elephants still rolls 2 D6 but the opponent can get them to reroll one of them.

@scotty7906 Ай бұрын

ahhh nice one.. thanks.. I did think the elephants were toooo powerful. I must have misread it.

@timebomb45 Ай бұрын

I'm pretty sure that when a unit is hit by a ranged attack roll of 6 it must take a missile break test, not become disordered. Also a unit of velites has 2 short range and 0 long range.

@scotty7906 Ай бұрын

nice one thanks. one of the reasons I made the video is so people could identify my mistakes.. appreciated I will update my stats for the velites and change the 6 disorder/break test.

@timebomb45 Ай бұрын

@@scotty7906 I'd also consider how your basing effects the rules. For instance a libyan infantry is usually 3 bases while a roman hastatii or principies is 2. So at around 38:45 with normal bases you'd have the libyans fighting the hastatii with the principes in support. I didn't see the dice rolls but it seems like you might have allowed the romans to fight the libyans 2v1. You might want to consider house ruling restrictions on unit engagement to make it more closely match what was intended.

@norm977 Ай бұрын

Thanks. The Elephants are beautifully painted ….. no wonder they did well!🙂 The disruptive nature of Hail Caesar command system does inject some unpredictability into the battle, which I think is necessary to mix this up and give a good game for both sides. Your goal to inspire has been achieved - cheers.

@scotty7906 Ай бұрын

many thanks. I do like the order system with hail caesar. Just because I want to move a unit doesnt mean it will do as told 🙂

@norm977 Ай бұрын

Thanks very much for putting this up, I am really enjoying this series of videos. Also good to see the basing system in action working with the HC rules. The opening with the penalties of pre-game casualties and the disorder of crossing the Trebbia does a good job of reflecting how the real battle opened. I like the situation shown in turn 5 as the ordered lines start to break down. Is it difficult to maintain the Manipular blocks for the Romans so that they get that internal support. I have seen one other vid on the battle and they used the Manipular system to swap out a damaged unit and replace with a fresh supporting unit. I need to start reading my HC rules. Any looking forward to the continuation, thanks for sharing your time.

@norm977 Ай бұрын

P.S. no idea why, but when I hit the ‘Thumbs Up” it turns black, but does not count up …. It still shows zero - strange!

@scotty7906 Ай бұрын

Many thanks. Yes I agree the pre-battle penalties do help to make the battle more historical. I was very keen to get a least one combat using the Manipular system just so I could try it and thankfully I did get one combat and it seemed to work fine. My biggest errors was not having none roman units supported. Warbands can be devasting with that wild fighters rule and Elephants are definitely a challenge to deal with. The small regular roman units can be tough as well with the special rules.

Thanks very much for doing the update, I have been looking forward to seeing this and good to know that your basing has survived a test with Hail Caesar rules.

Thank you, I have been waiting eagerly for this update. They look superb. I have cut and temporarily mounted mine to match your plan for Trebbia. For the Triarii, I decided to have just one stand per unit and place them on a half depth base - but that is subject to some more thought and perhaps change now that I have seen yours! You are a good way through now, so I am looking forward to seeing your refight.

@scotty7906 3 ай бұрын

many thanks. Glad I can be of help. I am still undecided on only 3 medium units representing a legion... I may in future do 2 Hastati, 2 Principes and 1 Triarii per legion, but I would then have to increase the carthage forces as well for Trebia. Probably see how it looks/and plays with the original OOB in the hail caesar rule book first.

@mhewson 3 ай бұрын

@@scotty7906 I think the three units would represent a cohort and not a legion - which would be up to 10 cohorts? according to my chatGPT investigation (:P) what I've settled on is each block of troops being a century - with 2 centurys in a maniple. there would be ten maniples of each troop type - hastati and principes would have two centurys (about 120 men) and Triarii one (about 60 men) - I'm also following your basing ideas!
