Title: Two year project to improve historical notes for MeG army lists
Post by: lionheartrjc on January 01, 2024, 12:45:09 PM
The Mortem et Gloriam army lists are available as a free download from the Mortem et Gloriam website.

The Mortem et Gloriam army lists include a brief historical introduction for each list (630 of them). I have set myself the task of improving them by including a timeline of battles and campaigns and lists of rulers or tribes for each list.  I expect this to take me two years.  (I am semi-retired and the research is interesting).

To see an example, select list set 24 (Greece and Macedon) or list set 25 (Italy).

I have now completed lists of rulers, battles and campaigns for the Chariot and Classical eras (up to around 475 CE).  So far I have identified about 1,450 battles and campaigns.

They are available in the MeG army lists which can be downloaded for free.

Now started on the early medieval period.

The link provided by Vexillia is incorrect.  Go to 2024 MeG Army Lists (http://1drv.ms/f/s!ArAp9B8LXfHfgd03E4nE95LwbjZP-Q?e=NUUGlb).
