Gosh you're making superb progress with that project. Lovely work.

[Bodvoc]

Very nice 

[irregularwars]

Keep it up. Looking very well.

[Hertsblue]

Great stuff, Will. You must have a fair-sized force by now?

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Hello...
Been a while! 
Reinforcements for my Later Romans now I've discovered MeG, allowing me to have 40mm deep infantry, which also show 'integral archers', at two bases and more cavalry.

Legio Secunda Britannia (or the remains of Legio II Augusta)


Legio Primani Iuniores


Veteran Auxilia Seguntienses (an auxilia palatina unit), or Cohors I Sunicorum


Limitarii Cavalry (or Illyricani)




Extra base of Equites Syri - Sagatarrii


Cohors III Nervionium, awaiting archers


Three extra bases of Equites Honoriani Seniores


Generals
Legendary (Dux Athos, nah, never heard of.. oh hello Merlin)




Mordred



Heavy Cavalry Commander


Light Cavalry Commander



Just an impression of what the Cohors III Nervionium, will look like


Seguntienses (an auxilia palatina unit), or Cohors I Sunicorum



Seguntienses (an auxilia palatina unit), or Cohors I Sunicorum with Mordred



Legio Primani Iuniores



Legio Secunda Britannia (or the remains of Legio II Augusta)

With a certain legend attached.


Full mass of Equites Honoriani Seniores, that's a six base unit and a LOT of horse flesh!


With attached general


Equites Illyicani Limitarii (one more base to go)


Equites Sagitarri (two more bases to go)

oooh yes.. I really enjoy your last entry...

thumbs up pal

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Pity they've all come out with weird colour balance!  Mix of halogen and a 100 watt bulb (an old one), recently I've been shooting in sunlight or led lighting, much clearer and bluer lights...

[Bodvoc]

What is/are MeG please?

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

Mortiem et Gloria, a new set on ancients rules due out in July.

[fred.]

Loads of Romans! Great stuff.

The pink cast to the photos will be from a halogen lamp - I've had this in the past, made bases look a weird purple/brown.

[Techno]

Terrific work, Will. 

Cheers - Phil.

[Leman]

Despite light I think they look great.

[Bodvoc]

Mortiem et Gloria, a new set on ancients rules due out in July.

I am always interested in a new set of Ancients rules, any hints as to how the rules work?

Nice Late Romans too.

[Duke Speedy of Leighton]

They work very well!
Card driven activation, but each card has its own value, black, white, yellow, green, red. Black means your not doing much, the red means you'll be running round your enemies!
Combat is by file, and pluses upgrade your dice, following the same order as cards, black and white means you won't get much done, green is 50 kills, red is lethal!
Units all break at 50%.
Brilliant fun

[Bodvoc]

Cheers for that ML, they do sound fun, I shall keep an eye out for when they are published.

[kev1964]

A great looking  army.

I will share a tip:
I use only one focus and a mirror in the other side of the miniature, which gives a natural soften of the shadows using the reflexion of the light form hte focus...

easy, cheap, effective and easy to store
