I didn't care for the chariot rules in WSS. I just use 3 chariots as heavy knight unit, which is usually 6 models. Give.each a chariot runner that comes off as first.casualty, and there you have it.

Whereas the rules in WSS say use 2 models and give them 3 hits each. Not sure there's much difference except for the number of models.

Or one chariot, and 6 runners! If I'm running a chariot army, I'd like some chariots! I suppose it makes sense if your entire force is a hero and his devoted following, but I prefer to think of mine as a snapshot of a larger battle. All the options are valid, and shouldn't play all that differently. The chariot as battle-taxi or crashing thru infantry debate is avoided either way!

I finished the olive grove and a well. Next is the olive farmers house.

Looking good. Do you have any animals planned? (What animals would be suitable? Goats?)

On the subject of rubberized horse hair, it seems to be available in large quantities form Companies selling upholstery materials (http://www.dmdistributors.com/store/pc/1-RUBBERIZED-HORSE-HAIR-40-FT-p1409.htm). Maybe 'møbelpolstrere' here in DK know something about it?

I have been thinking about some goats and some cattle. But for now I am doing the bigger stuff. All the smaller tat must wait for later. I also must have some amphora.

I have put icing on the olive farmers house.


And I have buildt an olivepress and some amphore scatter. The olivepress is very much inspired by the one sold by Manourhouse.
