Happy New Year Challengers!
First day of a new year and so the first submission of a new project: Caesarian Romans for Infamy Infamy. Alan is also doing some late Republic Romans, another local mate who has both Germans and Romans, and you see some Celts from Reilly sometime this challenge too. Between us we can do the Conquest f Gaul, Invasions of Germania, raids on Britannia, and the Civil Wars which resulted in the founding of the Empire under the deified Augustus. Should be a hoot.
These are my first two units, each of 8 figures, saboted on squares so I can rank base them for other games such as WAB, Soldiers of Rome or Impetus. I've done these deliberately NOT in red - the horror!. Shield stickers by LBM, my first time using them - found them rather daunting and fiddly but they look the business. The distinctive shields will distinguish them from my main legion force, so they can be veterans, recruits or auxilia.
These 16 proud soldiers of Rome should net me 80 points. Roma Victrix!
Beautiful looking Romans, the stickers finish them off nicely
ReplyDeleteThanks Stuart!
DeleteVery effective, and likely to be highly visible on the battlefield!
ReplyDeleteThe legions do not hide, they proudly announce themselves! Cheers Noel
DeleteWonderful looking group; the yellow shields are very distinctive.
ReplyDeleteYes, they give them the different look I was after. Cheers!
DeleteGreat looking Legions. The cha8n mail is very nicely done. You and your mate don’t do things by halves do you?
ReplyDeleteNot really no. Of course it doesn't always work out either :-) Thanks Peter!
DeleteSplendid looking Romans! Lovely finish!
ReplyDeleteBest Iain
Thanks Iain!
DeleteThose are just wonderful Paul! I have a bunch of Saleh-sculpted Wargames Foundry Republican Romans and this really makes me want to get some of those done up. I like the non-red take you've run with them. Ace.
ReplyDeleteScratch: Republican / Replace: Caesarian...
DeleteThanks Curt! Technically thee guys are late Republic so you arent wrong :-) More not-all-red Romans to follow soonish
DeleteThey look great - love the bold contrasts and your colour choices.
ReplyDeleteCheers mate, appreciated.
DeleteTop work, Paul! Love the variety you've brought to these Romans with a fine paint-scheme and those transfers. Versatile and loads of fun on the table!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sidney, appreciated. I donk think our idea of thousands of identical looking Roman soldiers is very accurate, so it's a good excuse to bring some more colour to the tabletop!
DeleteWell done Paul!
ReplyDeleteMany thanks!
DeleteFine work Paul! I love Romans, and these look the business, fine stuff.
ReplyDeleteThanks very much Greg!
DeleteGreat stuff Paul, another project I want to get done this year is my Caesarian legions.
ReplyDeleteWhat brand of figure are these Warlord?
Cheers
Matt
Yes Matt, these are Warlord plastics
DeleteThanks!
Superb troops. I've heard good things about Infamy, Infamy and look forward to hearing your opinions on the rules
ReplyDeleteIve had one or two games and really liked it. Ive got the Civil Wars in mind for a campaign
DeleteNice one Centurion. I look forward to them chasing my troops around the table.
ReplyDeleteThanks Biggus :-)
DeleteGreat work on these 👍
