Title: The Return of the Goths - Infamy! Infamy! - More finished units
Post by: whiskey priest on January 27, 2023, 05:30:27 PM

As I stupidly volunteered to run a game tomorrow I threw together some new terrain, a laager and some ruins and painted il another 20 goths.

The two on the left look like Essex, but with spoked wheels
replaced with MDF disks.

From the right in the photo, Warbases with new wheels (cos I built it wrong and had to improvise!) Front Rank/gripping beast and my own laser cut design.

That's a brilliant set up.  Loving the classical ruins, hand painted shields, wagenburg and wedge formations.   

Looks like there's more worth a look on your blog too.  Lovely stuff!

Thanks all, it's nice to get some good feedback. I reckon I'm going to a have a play around with the rules for the Goth cavalry as I want them to be a bit harder hitting than they are at the moment. So the next things on the painting desk is another unit of Comitatenses and then some more Goth cavalry...

Thought I'd repaint the shields on the Limitanei so that they look like two different units before I take the game to Bristol next weekend.

Here are the test figures with the original shield design on the right

That's a great looking game. Very interested to see how well these rules would work for the Late Roman period.
