Title: New Dacians and Sarmatians now available!
Post by: Leon on 03 October 2019, 08:41:30 PM
We're slowly revamping some of our older Ancients ranges and it's time for the Dacians to get the treatment!  We've taken the opportunity to split this range into a separate Sarmatian list and add some extra codes to both of these new ranges, including ballista, slingers, mounted archers and more!

Thanks go to Will Denham for all of his work helping us with these new ranges!

These look great, looking forward to seeing the Greeks and Persians too!

Seconded, no pressure  ;)

The crew for that ballista look more generic than AIR7, useful for a number of armies :)

Goody. May even get a Dacian army some day.

A request, probably of interest to many: could we have a bolt-shooting catapult one of these days with an open wooden framework? The metal frame existed, but wasn't the most common type down the centuries.

Excellent stuff.

Wish you'd photographed the 3rd horse archer from the other side. I got it into my head that he's wearing  helicopter hat and now I can't get rid of it.

Early attempt to improve mobility in bad terrain?

Hmmm, I'm not sure there have been many since 1970.

I would have though the only ancient army for Nobby is Roman, after all it has lots of Centurions.

Ba-dom-cha!  ;D
'tis true, 'tis true.



I think Pendraken may now have sufficient for me to proxy a Byzantine army.  :D :D :D


I've also been quite keen on a Roman-British (Arthurian if you will) heavy skirmish against the dastardly Saxons.

May I just say the new Dacians and Sarmatians look rather spiffing. I am trying to find a legit excuse to get some. I have an ancient german army in 10mm and expanding into ancient British. I can certainly use the archers for eg. but it is the Dacian spearmen I am most attracted to; the sculpting is lovely of course but the poses in particular will allow for some excellent looking warband bases. Aaaarrgghh...I seriously don't need more lead!
