Mesopotamia is where you want to be
If I were creating Pendraken I wouldn't mess about with Romans and  Mongols  I would have started with Centurions , eight o'clock, Day One!

Nice work :-bd

Saw some of these at World and couldn't believe how long and narrow they were; always thought they were chunkier.  The dude with the display told me there were several different mks.

Not an area I know a lot about.  Additionally, I've always wondered how you game in what was essentially a stagnant war.

I realise I am probably going to get ripped apart for the above :-[

I dunno. Looks about right to me!

The early part of WWI, late 1918 and the more exotic campaigns had lots of maneuvering. Wargaming the trenches requires more thought (and terrain) but it can be done.

Great War Spearhead has a nice little system for recreating static warfare and bombardments ...I think with some of the battles you need to break it down into smaller actions..If you ever get a chance to go to Bovington you will see how small they are . I dont know if they still have the one you can go inside but they are rather cramped
