This is the latest addition to my 'A Street of the Aventine', First Century Rome gaming project.
A Litter or Palanquin with passenger and four bearers.
I can see this featuring in many games of Gangs of Rome as a scenario objective, as well as in my Falco inspired Pulp Alley campaign.

Just bought a litter from Iron Gate Scenery today at Claymore, I hope I can do it as much justice as you have done to yours! Lovely looking piece.

Yes, I think the Romans knew how to do things with style!
