Title: Beta Turkoman list mistake?
Post by: landmeister on April 18, 2010, 11:12:25 AM

Dear all,

This question has been made at the Yahoolist, but with no response after two weeks, so I try it here, sorry.  :(

Beta list 4/77 White Sheep Turkoman. According to the notes, troops maked * are compulsory if any foot are used. The problem is that Archers are compulsory, so that they will alway be compulsory. Shouldn't Archers be marked * too?

Thank you.

I suspect you're right and that the foot archers should be asterisked too.

Can't give any more "official" answer than that, but I have added it to my (long) list of minor issues to which I'll call Phil's attention when he returns his attention to the list books.

Ok. Thank you very much.

Just curious. When will book 4 be available?  ;D

Well, the 2.0 rules are going to be finalized Any Day Real Soon Now, and after that I'd guesstimate a few months work on Bk remains, so perhaps towards late summer or early autumn?

For more definite answers, try consulting goat viscera. ;)

In the latest draft, the foot archers are "0, or 6-16", allowing an enitrely mounted army.
