Make up my mind!
« on: December 17, 2012, 10:16:12 PM »
All,
      I am succumbing to Spartacus once again. Between Anatoli's reports and the new rules out there, I can't resist. However, I need help picking a scale.  I can get the Crusader figures for $8.50 per pack USD, or I can go larger and cheaper with the 53mm plastics. Both have their pluses and minuses.

I love 28mm myself, but you can't go wrong with cheaper. My gut still says Crusader though.

Here is the problem.  Whie I do really like the Crusader figures, to bu what I wanted, I'd end up,with probably 10 figures I don't need.

Thanks for the offer, but you being in AUstralia, it likely would not pay me to buy a few figures from you.
I went to your blog, did not see Gladiator stuff.

I'm up to abt 40 actual gladiators and staff painted, maybe 10-15 more to go, plus civilians, a few Senators, etc... Plus a Playmobil arena... ::)

How many minis needed to play? 2! Well, none really. Move em into contact, roll dice, look at charts, done. :?

Enjoy!
