Two magnificent armies!  Terrific work.

I am building a Roman army using Warlord Games figures (mainly) just now.  I see from your blog that the commanders and some (all?) of the cavalry are from Victrix.  I have Warlord cavalry - are they about the same size?

Warlords are smaller than Victrix - we just preferred the Victrix cavalry. All the infantry were bought cheap on ebay over the last three years

Many thanks.  I got my infantry cheap too over the last couple of years - ebay, bring & buy etc.

Two questions,

1) How many figures make up the forces?

2) How long did it take you to paint all that?

They are amazing.

Eric,

That is what I would an army! Are all the cavalry Victrix, they seem to fit in with the warlord stuff  and don't look too out of place?

[AKULA]

What battles should look like....epic

Thanks Chaps

They are amazing.

There are about 600 figures on each side - half are legionnaries - around 260 figures. Took four months to paint ...details here http://shedwars.blogspot.com/2019/09/imperial-roman-army-assembles-part-1.html

Eric,

All of my cavalry are Victrix and Infantry Warlord - the Victrix men are bigger but because they are mounted its not so noticeable

Amazing!

Nowhere near enough figures.
You are such a slacker, Giles

Okay, you win, you undoubtedly have the most toys

Meh..... a mere skirmish game
