Big Battle "Bang for the Buck"

By John Meunier
> Tips and Guides > DBA Resources > Fanaticus

The following is a list of armies from DBA 2.2 that can form a legal Big Battle DBA
army composed of one main army with two allies. In all cases the main army includes
both allies as enemies as well, so by owning the following an individual would have all
the figures for a Big Battle DBA army as well as the figures for three historical DBA
foes.

In some cases, the allies include each other as enemies, but not all. Not included in this
list are armies such as II/5 Later Hoplite Greek in which allies are from the same list or
such as III/76 Papal Italian in which the allies are both from the same list.
