I've never had the urge to get involved in ancients but had a game of these rules with a club mate and had a great time, great rules with some nice features and they are the standard at my club now. I chose the Pontic chaps due to playing them on Rome: Total War but, as you said, they do have a nice mix of troop types so I thought they'd be a good army to start with in ancients.Iain Fullerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07575784627771286473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5227525544754109991.post-25020519305582369072016-07-13T16:57:57.516-05:002016-07-13T16:57:57.516-05:00Ian!

I managed to pick up some Essex figures from someone at my club very cheaply as he was getting rid which is good for a start, but will deffo be finishing the army off with Forged in Battle figs as they look great.Iain Fullerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07575784627771286473noreply@blogger.com
