Hello all,

Great - love the big ballista!

Did you have the two sadly nameless heroes taking it out?

Many thanks for your kind comments, I really appreciate them  :). I'm really glad how the army has turned out, especially as I was painting it for so many years now  ::).

@cataphractarius: Yes, we used a psiloi to represent these two heroes. They actually were able to destroy a ballista before they met their fate. It was really a great experience to see these events described by Tacitus actually working and happening in our game....
