Title: Ipsos 301BC - Lysimachid List
Post by: Ironhelms on June 24, 2011, 10:03:46 AM

Hi All,

Reading the blurb on list 17, which combines Lysimachid with seleucid and macedonian allies it states you have to take all the seleucid elephants, which before 280BC is 8 ! (It was less in the old DBM book)

Base on the compulsory requirements of each list, the minimum army size is 432AP, and even that current breaks both minima (20 v 24min) for the two allied lists.

Q. Do you have to take all 8 ? - thus allowing you you to play the list at 400AP, or is the option really only available for big 'meta' games ?

I think it's a hang over from the DBM list,which only had 5 ELs ? So hopefully it will get changed when Bk2 gets a reprint.  :)

Also have a look at this thread from the Yahoo list about the same thing.
