Thanks guys.

@major, me too. I'll likely get back to them in late December or January, I have some 6mm sci-fi I want to work on next for the EpiComp painting competition at the end of the year.

Just as an observation, I play DBA3, I will never play TRIUMPH because those guys basically ripped off Phil Barker.

They are relying on the difficulty and cost to bring an action in a US court for a UK citizen to thumb their noses. If they were Chinese, you would all be calling them pirates.

Not looking to get into a shouting match over rules, just showing off the Romans for entertainment and inspiration. If that's your hill to die on, more power to you. I see it no differently than anyone else's homebrew rules though.

Language can be copywritten, mechanics cannot. Given how much has been added to the system between the different troop types, combat result exceptions and terrain generation, plus the complete overhaul of the language itself, I couldn't see any case holding water.

Yeah, beautiful figures. I’m looking forward to seeing them with their shields.

Back to the Romans! I finsihed up my Triarii this week and also spent some time putting together bases for everything.



Now I have usable units for Triumph! and can use the figures in a skirmish game as well. Next up is the Principes, cavalry and then I need to figure out the shields. I'm looking at some sort of decal at this point.

I finished up my principes for a game of Triumph! this Saturday. I should be able to get them some bases by then too. I need to start figuring out what I'm going to do for all their shields. I'll probably track down some design and make decals for them.
