Spartan Bargain
Having only this week built the box of 48 Spartan Hoplites by Victrix, I found myself on Ebay perusing the 28mm ancients.
Need to start painting
It looks like I have a lot of painting to do. This is my current army to oppose some of my Romans and is made up of Greek & Spartan Hoplites.
Making the Spartan Hoplites
Victrix make some wonderful 28mm figures. I first came across them when I decided to get back into Napoloenic wargame figure collecting and got some boxes of their French Napoleonic figures.
Starting the Hoplites
For the last week or 10 days I have been mainly building ancient Greek Hoplites.
Warlord Sprue Sale
Warlord Games had a sale on over the last week or so. 50% off on individual sprues. You couldn't get the whole range but there was a nice selection of Bolt Action and Ancient plus some Pike and Shot stuff.
Roman Books
I picked up two books on the Roman Army from the second-hand department in my local bookshop this week. I am after some uniform resources for the Romans I've picked up since Salute 2017 and before ordering something from Amazon, I thought I'd see what my local book shop had.
Hail Caesar Imperial Roman Veterans – Quick Review
My first Roman figures have been put together, they are the Imperial Roman Veterans from Warlord Games 'Hail Caesar' series.
Salute 2017
Salute is the country's largest wargaming show and us run by the South London Warlords wargame club each year. I've never been before so this was a first for me. It was also my first time on the Docklands Light Railway.
