Pathfinder 1E Mass combat in Pathfinder

Counters

I'm not sure about Tabletop (the counters need to display a fair bit of numerical info on their face, and I need to be able to write on them during the battle), but for Maptools (where I will use macros for this stuff) they will be awesome.

Thanks!

Did I miss it or has Warpath not been mentioned.

WARPATH: Rules for Mass Combat - Adamant Entertainment | RPGNow.com

I just got it last week and so far it seems to hit a nice sweet spot between overly complicated and not enough tacitcal decision making.

Can you speak on how WARPATH does in handling mass combat in Pathfinder?

Even better, have you playtested it yet?

Warpath basically allows you to stat up each piece of an army (i.e. units) as a d20 character and then combat is run on a grid where each inch represents 10 feet using the d20 mechanics we're already familiar with. There's a bit more to it, but thats the system in a nutshell - the unit becomes a character that can be tactically moved and attacks and recieves damage. Its not overly complex. I haven't actually used it yet but it reads simple enough.

Wicht,

Thanks for this. I've got "Cry Havoc,", which seemed simple enough for 3.5, but I never had the parts to run something for it.
