I intend to paint two armies one for the Caesarian forces and the other for the Pompeian faction in the civil wars at the end of the Republic. Combined as a Republican Roman army to face Seleucids and Pontic armies, and I'm tempted to build a Numidian army as well. I've always loved this period in history, with fabulous characters Pompey, Crassus, Sertorius, Marius, Sulla and Julius Caesar of course; as well as fantastic opponents in the shape of Vercingetorix, Mithridates, Spartacus and my favourite Jugurtha amongst others.
The figures are based for To The Strongest ancients rules, and I'm using a 100mm grid size. They are also perfect for Hail Caesar as well.
More ancients to follow......

Tasty, My 15mm Visigoths are just a bit too late to fight them!
ReplyDeleteThanks Will, you know I don't need much persuading or temptation to do another army!!! Especially as 15mm are so quick to paint.
