Trajan defeats Parthians
« on: 14 February 2024, 02:31:40 AM »
The Arsacids are mainly converted from Pendraken's Sarmatian range. Here and there in the mixture are bits of most other makers of 10mm figures. My wife, leading the Romans, mercilessly massacred me. As happens far too often for comfort.
The laws of probability do not apply to my dice in wargames or to my finesses in bridge.

We all enjoy seeing you get humbled. ;)

But seriously, great looking game- sure you’ll get your revenge soon lol
Where did you get the terrain from? That fortress in particular looks fantastic.

The outer wall of the fortress is 6mm components from Leven; the citadel came, alas, from the already much missed Magister Militum (it was sold as "small hill town'). Stream and dunes home-made; trees from the architect models section of a local shop, with a few from a cheapo plastic dinosaur set. The mat is by Tiny Wargames.

I can’t get my wife to play a game with me unless it’s an RPG or a cooperative card game.  You are lucky to get your thumpings.

I always love when I convince one of my family members to play a game, and then they proceed to thump me.  I play dozens of games a year, and they might play 1, and they still thump me!

Let them win a few, and they'll be addicted. Old trick!
