So it's only been seven years since the last update on this project, and frankly, I wasn't sure I was ever going to come back...

Until, that is, a friend asked if I wanted to try out a Saga Antiquities game, and I thought 'hell with it, why not'. And then it turned out that not only did I not have a painted Warlord for Saga, I was also missing a point of Warriors.

Upon learning that he was running Carthaginians, and fully painted no less, I could not let this stand. The honour of Rome demanded it.

So for the first time in SEVEN YEARS (got the gist yet?) I put paint to Roman models and came up with the following, rounding out a 6pt force using the Roman rules from Saga: Age of Hannibal!

Glad you found a reason to keep plugging away at them.  May they see plenty of use on the table!

I'm glad you resurrected this thread that I now discover. I love your work, and your Romans are no exception. Your Primus Pilus is particularly impressive, and of course very inspiring.
