Wars of the Republic - Devon Wargames Group
« on: 21 September 2025, 01:51:36 PM »
One of the games played this month at the DWG was a Pyrrhic War skirmish in 28mm using the rule set from Osprey, Wars of the Republic written by Eric Farrington and illustrated by Giuseppe Rava.



Much fun was had exchanging pilum and pushes with pike, plus a bit of elephant action to keep things really interesting.

Often it is better to remain silent and let people think you are stupid than to open your mouth and remove all possible doubt.

Great looking game! Lovely to see something other than Punic Wars with Republican Romans. Well done.

Hi Chaps,
Thanks for your comments. I’ll pass them on to Alex, our game organiser.

Cheers
