While building up my armies for FOG, I do realise that I have only a rough grasp of what the troop types under my command actually are - and the grasp of my opponents even less so.
So I'm developing a new section of the blog - called 'What's one of them' to find out more about the troops available - how they were armed and used in ancient times and what role they played in their specific army.
In addition, I'll also highlight the FOG perspective on each troop type so the information can be used on the wargaming battlefield more effectively.
As each troop type is completed, the link will be posted on this page for easier access.
