Reply To: Does the historical period dictate the minimum and/or maximum size of a battle ?

“The size I refer to here is no more than 80 soldiers in an ‘army’ / ‘warband’ with elements of 8 or less and mobs of 40 as a (rare) maximum. In other words : you’re not even close to fielding a single Century …”

It is hard to pin down a ‘minimum’ size, but I think something along those lines.
So a 60 lads at one side should be ok-ish, but it isn’t an exact science … at least I doubt anyone can ever agree on when something is a ‘skirmish’ in tabletop terms.
