So the dismountable units are available in the patch for everyone - not just buyers of the DLC?

"Some mounted unit types can be dismounted as equivalent infantry units at Deployment. This is confined to nations that often dismounted their cavalry, and currently only applies to units in the Age of Belisarius DLC."

My bad.  :-[

Ooooh...a sale!

Very nice.  Glad I held off on the DLC.

Narses dismounted Byzantine cavalry as heavy spearmen at Taginae in c. 532AD.

It's kind of silly to investigate whether or not a Clinton is lying. That's sort of like investigating why the sky is blue. Banzai_Cat

  Yeah, but there is a Clovis I campaign -- holy shit!

Buying it was never a question.  I can't imagine an expansion for this I wouldn't buy.

I won't dive in for a bit with Origins and other stuff -- not to mention that I'm in the third round of the latest FoG2 tournament.

I do like, though, hanging out in a joint where a Clovis campaign brings roars of enthusiasm.

Looks like we have some common ground. According to the definition below, we CANNOT play the newest games...gotta go with the old ones.

grognard (plural grognards) An old soldier. A soldier of the original imperial guard that was created by Napoleon I in 1804 and that made the final French charge at Waterloo.

No, we just play the new ones and grumble about them.

It counts.

That wouldn't be my definition in any case it's more about the nature and depth of the simulation than anything yo do with the age of the game. Wanting to play Desert War from  makes me a grognard because of what it is compared to say  panzer Corps.

Just another day on the BF forum ... one demented idiots reaction to BF disagreeing about the thickness of the armour on a Tiger II turret mantlet.
