PIco has agood selection of Roman buildings and forts---but they are listed as 2nm. Has anyone used them with Baccus figures?

Not the Roman building and forts but I have used the North African fort for WW1 Mesopotamia. My preference is for 3mm buildings rather than 2mm though, FWIIW. It is a personal preference thing, so maybe just get one example to see what you think?

I have used 3mm buildings by TBM with 6mm Franco-Prussian troops. They work very well.


A little goes a long way

Thank you. I have used the 3mm buildings for FPW too and they are fine. I'm frustrated that it's 2mm.

I liked the 2/3mm as I envisioned using at least a partial city, without breaking the bank. I'm going to try a few of the free Age of Hannibal paper buildings to see how hard they are to make.

Hmmm, the age of Hannibal buildings are easy to put together. Think I'll work with those for now.

PaperTerrain has nice sets of 3mm buildings but not for this period:
