Ah, that was ported over from Mongoose's _Quintessential Fighter_ classbook for D&D. It's not ideal... there's a somewhat better 2nd edition Mongoose-style mass battle system (by Adrian Bott) in _Strongholds & Dynasties_. Alternatively there's a rather good, more narrative-based mass battle system in BESM d20.

Ian... didn't you write the Slaine RPG?
