Caeser & Pals & Foes

I've been really enjoying the discussions on famous generals, and thought you guys might be interested in the folliwng 'special characters' that we came up with for the Pharsulus campaign we played when developing WAB. There are no points values as it was part of a campaign.

JULIUS CAESER

Profile M WS BS S T W I A Ld
Julius Caesar 4 6 6 4 4 3 6 3 10

Armed with a sword. May have light armour and/or ride a warhorse.

Inspirational: Any unit led by Caeser will exert itself that little bit harder in combat, and may therefore add +1 to its combat results score.

Quick Thinking: Caeser *always* gets the first turn of a battle, unless he has been ambushed or in some other way surprised. In addition, Caeser is allowed to redeploy any one unit in his army *after* he has seen his opponent's set-up. The redeployed uniut may be set up anywhere in Caeser's deployment area.

Rash: Caeser and any unit he leads become subject to Warband Psychology rule 2.

 

MARC ANTONY

Profile M WS BS S T W I A Ld
Marc Antony 4 7 6 4 4 3 6 3 9

Armed with a sword. May have light armour and/or ride a warhorse.

Tenacious: A unit led by Marc Antony takes any leadership tests with three dice, and picks which two it will use to decide the result of the test.

 

POMPEY

Profile M WS BS S T W I A Ld
Pompey 4 6 6 4 4 3 6 2 9

Armed with a sword. May have light armour and/or ride a warhorse.

Great Commander: To represent Pompey's remarkable ability as an army commander if he is included in an army it may set up second, after the opposing army's deployment has been revealed.

 

TITUS ATIUS LABIENUS (leader of Pompey's cavalry at the Battle Of Pharsulus)

Profile M WS BS S T W I A Ld
Titus Labienus 4 6 6 4 4 3 6 3 9

Armed with a sword. May have light armour and/or ride a warhorse.

Hates Caeser: Titus Labienus and any unit he leads hate Julius Caeser (see the psychology rules). If caeser is leading a unit then they hate that unit as well. If he is leading an army then they hate the entire army!
