Ah my Favourite Subject ....
I am painting up a Early Carthaginian Army in 28mm.
My feed back is as follows .
Im using a lot of Crusader Miniatures .. they are awesome . with the added advantage that they Fit in Perfectly with the A & A miniatures ( same sculpter )
They seem to me to be the only
Complete Range , to my mind
I also have some Relic miniatures . they are most certainly
not to small.and offer some different models they are very nice .....gone off the Victrix a bit, they are nice but didnt match other figures I had .
However starting fresh it is very hard to look past them , and at aprox 56 pence per figure , the infantry are way less than 1/2 the Price... so for big armies .. its like getting an army free ....
The down side that everyone forgets in the joy of purchasing of cheap figures

..is how long it takes to assemble the rotten things .

Hope this helps
Cheers
