A second attempt at posting. Just as I was finishing an unwary key hit seems to have deleted the entire post with photos! This post may not be as comprehensive as the previous attempt....
As a few people have expressed an interest in seeing the remaining armies, here follows the other DBA forces, including the elusive Celts.
The armies were created with the idea of covering the known Roman world from around 100-30BC so covering from Marius to the Principate. They were also designed to cover all available options or armies in a given list so have more elements than a standard DBA army.
Romans - from the Freikorps 15 range designed by Dave Allsop - no longer available as they have been redesigned. Roughly 3x DBA armies - veterans of many battles and a couple of campaigns they are showing some wear and tear due to the brittle metal - lots of pilum need repair or replacement and the Pompeians have lost their eagle. The range included some excellent personality figures of Caesar, Pompey and Crassus.
The Barbarians - early Germans
The Spanish
Numidians - including King Juba who started life as a Mongol from Tabletop Miniatures and the elephant which was lurking in the Celt box...
In the same box were the Seleucid and Pontic scythed chariots.
The Celtic host - covering options and variants for Gallic, Galatian and Ancient British armies
Cavalry - some may be Germans
4WB - Gaestati, Solduri or Galatians - with or without clothes
3WB warriors - Gallic or British
Chariots, British LC and skirmishers
The Germans have yet to see a game IIRC and the Celts masquerading as Ancient British beat a Mongol army by maximising terrain. I'm now wondering if a Marian "Known World" campaign is an easier option....
