The first of brigade is finished: two more to go.
It consists of:
General - Medusa
Heavy Infantry - Amazon Hoplite Phalanx
Light Infantry - Amazon Peltasts
Light Infantry - Snakemen Peltasts
Skirmishers - Two small units of Snakemen Poisoned Dart Blowers.
I use half size units compared to the Hail Caeser Recommendations because (i) I need half the number of figures and (ii) I do not need such a big table.
So a standard infantry unit consists of twelve models in two rows, and a standard cavalry unit of six models in one row. A small unit is half sized.

I'm preparing to do the same at 6mm scale for Fantasy Rules! If size is your problem, think about using 10mm or 6mm figs. Plenty of stuff out there and they are a snap to paint.

Peltast snakemen v the giant bunny, I'd vote the bunny wins!
ReplyDeleteThats no ordinary rabbit! Its the most foul tempered and evil rodent you've ever laid eyes on!
ReplyDeleteDear GG
ReplyDeleteTrue but I like 28mm.
Size matters to me (as the actress said to the bishop).

hmmm. These Amazons seem to be lightly equiêd... Ermmm. How do you treat mythology in Hail Caesar?

ReplyDeleteIt is well known that women warriors wear only thin strips of leather - see any fantasy book.
I will use it as a standard army of the time, albeit with unusual models.

I think the rabbit is cute, even if it (he/she?) IS a demon spawn from Hell.
