Do you want a “rank and flank” game with formations? Or are you fine with large “skirmish” games? Hobgoblins, Dragon Rampant and Warlords of Erehwon might be up your alley, since they can be customized rather easily.

DBA and its derivates are a bit more complicated as far as i know and are thus maybe not beginner friendly, though i do not have personal experience with it.

Nice work, i love that oldhammer look of the squig!

Lol. Thanks, i like them for how easy they were to make.
