Did Caesar really have to contend with a vast army of  buxom, left-handed, naked ladies?  :o  :o  :o

No. I think they were given the wrong hormone treatment.   :o (that's why they are sooooo angry!  >:()

Btw, in Photo 3, are these magic mushrooms?  :-\

[Good stuff by the way, Womble  :) ]

Great, Andy!

I see you're using four ranks for warband as per the rules. How do you find warband play in HC?

We really like the rules my only criticism is the slight differences between Hail Caesar and Black Powder. Which can cause confusion.

Thank you everyone for your nice words of encouragement.

Yes, we were all fooled into thinking page 3 was a thing of the past.

Hmm those ladies are rather well equipped, I would imagine they would be a huge distraction for those Roman invaders

Great army and scenery.

Would have though more likley 3 - one small with a horned helmet, one huge, and the other with a chemical plant and oak tree....

I think Leven Models do a chemical plant in 6mm, which works well with 10mm figures, but may look out of place in ancient Gaul.

They were gaesati when I did Archaeology at uni mumble mumble years ago. Usage may have changed in the intervening millenia :)

Nice army and basing. I have just bought into Command & Colors Ancients, so this has my interest. I think your ladies should give +1 morale to everyone .... even the enemy :)
