I think you will struggle to find any decent sculpts to match up because the foundry figures (as you know) are quite small by comparison to newer 28mm sculpts. What i would do is use some of the other javelin armed troops from foundrys arthurian and frank ranges, mixed in with the falx armed dacians. Ive not seen anything that comes close to the perry sculpts for this period

As I feared, for a large army conversions are going to be necessary just to keep me sane when it comes to the painting!  :D

Have you seen the Dacian command figures by Clash of Spears? They look lovely but as new figures I suspect they may dwarf the Foundry types.

Not that I've been able to find just now John. Do you happen to have a link please?

Atheling, I see from another thread that you will be at Partizan next week. Could I suggest you look at the Old Glory Dacians "in the metal" as they will be there. You may have to contact them to bring a pack as I don't think they now bring all their ranges to shows.

Regards

I have a feeling they won't mix with the Perry Foundry Dacians SJWI. On top of that, I know Andy quite well and will probably feel obliged to buy  lol
