Bits and bobs on the DBx family, i.e. DBA, DBM, DBR, HOTT,
etc.
Tactical Rules and Army Lists
| HOTT House Rules | HOTT | Non-standard rules to use for HOTT |
| Historical HOTT | HOTT | HOTT Army Lists for semi-historical Medieval armies including Islamic Armies, Reconquista Christian, London Commuters, etc |
| New World DBA | DBA | DBA customised for warfare in the New World: Aztecs and enemies |
| Spanish Succession | DBA(ish) | Rules for the War of Spanish Succession which are very, very loosely based on DBA |
| NZ Wars DBA | DBA(ish) | Rules for the NZ Colonial Wars . |
| 100 AP DBM | DBM | A variation on DBM for battles of a similar size to DBA (100 AP) . |
| Scenarios | Various | Draft scenarios for the Italian Wars, Buccaneers, etc |
Campaign Rules
| Britannia 600 AD | DBA/HOTT | Welsh, Saxons, Scots, Irish and Picts fighting it out on the map of the Britannia board game |
| Fall of Rome | DBA | A one-day DBA campaign for eight players |
| A Load of Gauls | DBA | A Matrix Game based on the Gallic Invasion of Italy 225 BC. In fact this is a great campaign which is let down by using DBA as the tactical rules. When I ran it the lead up to the final battle was really exciting, but then the Gallic Warband just sliced through the Romans. Quite an anti-climax. I would consider using other tactical rules instead of DBA |
| The Bagradas River Campaign | DBM | Rules for a Punic War campaign for two players and an umpire using DBM |
| DBM Campaign | DBM | Rules for a largish, multi-player, Ancient/Medieval campaign. I've run this a couple of times: Europe 1100 AD and Europe 1455 AD. The mechanics of this one are fairly simple (based on DBA campaigns), but I now favour an even snappier campaign rules, and less people |
| DBR Campaign | DBR | Rules for a ECW/30 Yr War/80 Yr War campaign for two players and an umpire. Fairly high overhead in admin, but achievable because only aims at two players |
| Italian Wars Campaign | DBR | Rules for a campaign set in the Italian Wars featuring mercenaries, faction in-fighting, bribery and corruption |
