Overall, a strong first game. I play with light horse quite a bit and try to avoid Cv since they are quite a bad match up. Knights against Cv are a winning matchup, but fast knights are a bit brittle so you should seek to get the first strike in. There are tricks you can use for this, such as an infantry screen, that we can chat about in person sometime.
Hello! Just found your channel by chance, and I will keep an eye, especially as you played quite a bit of S&H which is a game I like a lot! Regarding DBMM I tried to get a hang on the rules, but found it "too much" although I saw a lot of neat ideas in it. Instead I started to play Triumph! which I enjoy very much. Do you know it? I believe it's a direct descendant of DBA.
Thanks for the comment. I've not seen "Triumph!" but I have played a couple of games of Art de la Guerre, which again is some kind of DBA/DBM descendent. More S&H coming soon! I'm running the Battle of Chaeronea (First Mithridatic War) at the local club this Saturday. I'll put up an after-action video report over the weekend.
Great video! Hang in there with DBMM, it is a tough learning curve, but worth the climb!
Thanks, will do!
