That's wonderful...I saw you have Titus Pullo with the bullock cart rescuing Eirene!
Thanks for the kind words.

Though I do have Pullo and Vorenus but (as Republicans) they are not with this legion.  They are destined to command my marines!  My Legio VI Victrix is modelled for service after Claudius' invasion.

Thanks for the kind words.  You may be disappointed as my painting looks better from a distance and en masse.
If you PM me your email address I'll send some higher resolution pictures.

They look great. So many of us started wargaming with Romans and the dream of one day having a complete legion  :)

Aren’t all those individual bases a pain to move though? It must slow the games down? Have you thought of investing in some sabot movement trays?

Thanks.  I have lots of the plastic rectangular bases from various other sets.  The figures are blue-tacked to these for big games. 

We don't mind the pace of games being a bit slow, though, as the social aspect, banter, word play, grandad jokes etc slow it anyway!
