Abu, your Gladiators are great! I´m currently watching "Spartacus: Blood and Sand" and since the first episode I´m hooked on Gladiators! Your´s are Crusader if I´m not mistaking? Great job!

Thanks to you both.  I am liking the Spartacis series myself- talk about gratuitous...everything!

The casualties and crew are Crusader, the dwarf gladiators Foundry, with a couple North Star ostrich opponents.  After I bought WH's Gladiator rules I painted up a menagerie of animal opponents for the venatores including hippos, elephants, crocs, and big cats. I originally wanted to call this " Boys, we just got beat by a bunch of goddam birds" but figured that was too long and wasn't sure if anyone would get the movie reference anyway.

Good luck going forward to both of you.

Another Spartacus fan here! Great work on the gladiators, except now I have to leave them out of my next entry! ;)

That White Tree banner... :o :-*

Great work, both of you!

@Hazel: Great interpretation of the topic. That's really close to what I always imagined Numenorians to look like.
