Ah right. I just got a copy, so I can have a good look at that later tonight. Yeah, AIT01 in formed ranks does sound like a better fit then.

Continuing this discussion if I can.

I intend (and ranks means loose line for some of these troop types)

Heavy Infantry in 4 ranks of 6 (Romans and spear/pike)

Medium in 3 ranks of 6 (Gallic Warbands, Campainians, Celts, Iberian who are not spear)

Light in 2 ranks of 6

Skirmishers in a 'cloud' of 12

Cavalry, something similiar in 8/10/12

Any thoughts regarding this?, I want it apparent from the start how heavy the troop type are.

Sounds like a good plan and maximises the mass quality of 6mm figures.

I'm going for a cheaper approach, with much fewer fgures per base, as follows:

Skirmish troops: 6 figures, dispersed

Light Inf: 8 figures, somewhat dispersed.

Warband / Charging Celts: 12 figures, dispersed.

All other formed troops (HW, Spear, Pike, etc): 12 figures, in orderly ranks.

Light Cav: 4 figures, dispersed.

Medium Cav: 6 figures, mostly ordered.

Heavy Cav: 8 figures, mostly ordered.

Elephants: 1 elephant, 3 skimishing figures.

Command bases: 2-3 figures for lieutenants, 3-4 for generals (smaller round bases for Ls, bigger round bases for Gs).

If I get around to having artillery at any point, I'm going to use 1 weapon and several crew per base.

I will be going with 8 figures per base, I tried 12, but it does not look so good, base is a bit busy.

Excue the poor photography!

They look great!

Thank you for the suggestions.  I bought the AoH rules a few months ago after watching the Youtbube episode of Little Wars TV, and I was wondering how to select units to match with the scenarios.  This forum has been a great help.  I will use this as a guide as I order figures.  I have the Over the Alps scenario supplement, and will match up figures to play several of the battles listed there.

This topic is great!

We post some question on the topic Age of Hannibal and find some answer!

Thanks All for the informations We was looking for!

@frederick_the_green : Great bases you post here! Seems to be 4x4cm, is'nit ?

Who sell the shield transferts?
