Ancient Greek Geek - Ancient Wargames

  Just have a look at these beautiful 28mm Classical Indian figures from Blitzkrieg Miniatures .  Paul Corcoran from Blitzkrieg brought these samples along to the Sutton-in-Ashfield WAB 2.0 event (see previous post).   They are magnificent sculpts and exceptionally well-painted samples. Paul allowed me to drool over them for far too long! And now I can't wait for them to be released.  I understand that they will be launched soon - when the cavalry are ready.  He says that they prefer to launch when an entire range is ready, rather than in dribs-and-drabs I see that that the  Ancient Indians  page is already to go on their website (plus Palmyran and Egyptians).  They already have Seleucids (look great - see the Seleucids in my previous post), Romans, Cretans, Thracians and Barbarians. Hmm! I wonder if it's possible to have an entire army of macemen.

Well, it's been since I posted on here.  A new job has been taking up my time - that's my excuse!

Two Carthaginian armies collide Also, fellow "Old Berks" player, John Kersey, was there with his newly-painted Palmyran army (so fresh that you could smell the paint!), complete with Queen Zenobia.  It was good to meet some more WAB players and to watch some interesting games unfolding.  Thanks for the welcome!  I'm even tempted to play some 2nd Edition now, although I do still want to use 1.5 too.  I love the supplements!
