Well, I came to this forum looking for a definitive answer from either FFG or Mr. Borg about Battle Savvy, and it looks like I got it. However... there was this forum item on BGG regarding Green units and Battle Savvy (second from the bottom):
The salient quote: "I spoke with Richard Borg about Battle Savvy when he was at KublaCon in May. I asked about what differentiated Gaul and Celtic barbarians (which would be battle savvy under C&C: Ancients) from medieval armies (which would not be battle savvy by default under BattleLore). He said that his group generally plays that most BattleLore troops are battle savvy with the exception of Green (levy) units. He said that the non-battle-savvy status is most appropriate for feudal levies and peasants."
I was wondering if anyone here has tried playing that way, or if Mr. Borg could comment on which is the preferred approach (all units, or all but Green).
