I worked up another Ancients list for Kings of War. This one is matched (approximately) to the Version 3 revisions. Includes Rome, Carthage, Iberia, and Numidia for the Second Punic War. I plan to do Gauls next, and would eventually like Macedonians, later Greeks, and Germans for a broad Western-Med theatre set. Gauls will be Headstrong, often use two-handed swords, and have the option to take chariots as well as cavalry.
One major difference from the excellent Ancients sets over on Hour of Wolves & Shattered Shields is in the skirmishers. He gave HUGE ranged ability to skirmishers. I restrict mine to 5+, or 4+ for particularly famous units. I've also given my legions a ranged pilum attack, since part of the fun of this kind of game is representing different weapons.
I would love to hear any feedback from Kings of War players out there. I have tried to give reasonable point values, but with the official human list not yet available, have had to extrapolate some.
