From ScottM: 15mm Ancients (174 points)

One of the things I wanted to get painted in this year's challenge was some of my 15mm Ancients remnants that I had lying around. I had a number of partially filled packs from when I painted up New Kingdom Egyptian and Hittite armies a number of years ago. So here's a number of those remnants. All the figures are from Old Glory 15s. These figures are based up for Impetus, Sword & Spear and Hail Ceasar. First up are some Sea People infantry.
Next are a bunch of Nubian archers.
Next are a pair of Egyptian archer bases.
Next is a lone base of Egyptian heavy infantry.
And finally is a pair of slinger skirmish bases.
I also managed to paint up some middle eastern buildings. These resin buildings are from Forged in Battle's War & Empire range. These are the Eastern Village set with a Minaret Mosque Tower. These were dead simple and quick to paint up.

So that should be:
86 - 15mm foot figs = 172 points
Buildings = 2 points
Total = 174 points

  2. Nice work Scott. This is exactly whats great about the Challenge, do you think these would have been painted up if not for the Challenge?

    1. I had set myself a New Years goal of getting 6 bases done some time this year. Definitely crushed that goal!

  4. I use 20mm x 80mm for skirmishers, 40mm x 80mm for infantry/missile troops and 60mm x 80mm for cavalry/chariots/elephants. If I need to have really close order infantry I can use 30mm x 80mm.
