Ok, I have finally finished my LittleWarsTV inspired Polybian Roman Army (Carthaginians are underway)

Here are a few images, I am not much of a photographer though!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And because it's 6mm, the 'money shot', over head view

The whole lot are for Cannae from the AoH Scenario book (note, 1 Latin Peltast and 6 Alae Peltasts not shown, they were in the other box and I forgot about them).

I went through all the 'troop types' used in the AoH scenario book and worked out 'max 12 Italian Hoplites, max 10 Pricipes, max 10 Samnite Foot', etc, so slightly more than actually needed for Cannae here, but who cares, it just make a better photo.

Really happy with them, done to a 'tabletop' standard, i.e. no sandals, etc, because in an army of 1300 men, who needs to see sandals?

 

Hope you like them, Carthaginians well underway now!

I havbe bought Polybian figures for use with Age of Hannibal. Thanks for sharing. This gives a very good idea of how to base up for an AOH army.


A little goes a long way

Most impressive array. Looking forwar to seing the photos of the Carthaginians - I do like a good war elephant, like a few reenactors of my acquaintance it's always been a struggle to fit one into the scenarios for 17th C Civil Wars in Britain.
