After a really enjoyable game of Scottorum Malleus using my 6mm Feudals I dug deeper into the 6mm box file. (yes just the one box file, part of the attraction of 6mm is storage) I found some unpainted Parthians and quickly brought them up to scratch, and although the Irregular Minis figures are not great, the Heroics and Ross that make up the bulk of these are fine.
The Celts and Macedonians are also mainly heroics and Ross, and I'm perfectly happy with the figures.
My Romans on the other hand are Baccus and are just superb figures. All in all then I'm quite pleased with the figures, and the 40mm frontage given I have enough to double rank all of these element bases for Lost Battles.
The might of Rome. 30 Legionary elements, 4 Cavalry, and they could borrow some skirmishers from the Gauls. It's such a big army it could be halved to fight the Civil Wars. |
The Macedonians, 12 Pike elements doubled into 6 Pike blocks, 3 elephant bases, 4 Cavalry elements and a pair of slingers. |
And my terrain for 6mm Ancients. A complete middle Eastern city, a barbarian or Medieval style village and the tents for a Roman Marching Fort. |
And that is my collection of Ancients at the one true scale of 6mm. I just dont know what rules to use or what to do with them, although I'm pretty sure inspiration will strike!
