DBM 3.1, (Elements picked but not organised into commands)
By John Graham-Leigh
So as a Lancastrian army you have:
1 Reg Kn(O) C-in-C - 32 AP
1 Reg Kn(O) SG - 32 AP
1 Reg Kn(O) AG - 22 AP
4 Reg Kn(I) - 40 AP
8 Reg Bd(O) - 56 AP
18 Reg Bw(S) - 126 AP
4 Irr Ps(S) - 12 AP
4 Irr Ps(I) - 4 AP
Total 324 AP. For a 300 AP army I'd drop 2 Bw(S), 1 Bd(O) and 1 Ps
(S). That gives you only 33.5 EE for a 3-command army - a small,
high-quality force.
Of course, 300 AP is very small so you'll need to bulk it up to 400
AP. For that, I recommend a large force of shire levies and Northern
border troops. Say:
12 Irr Sp(I) - 48 figures, 36 AP
3 Irr LH(O) - 6 figures, 15 AP
2 Irr Bd(I) - 8 figures, 8 AP
10 Irr Bw(O) - 30 figures, 40 AP
That makes the 400 AP army 60.5 EE - a respectable size and very
tough. The fighting troops are of course the Bw(S), Bd(O) and Kn(I)
dismounted as Bd(S).
