I've almost finished all the options for a Mithridatic DBA army: link I can field the pike option, but am still working on the imitation legionaries.
Unfortunately the pictures were take in too bright light. Other pictures here: link |

Nice work. You're certainly covered for most eventualities with that lot…:) I'm guessing the pikes and the cavalry are hoping the chariot doesn't suddenly bolt forward with those knives sticking out….
Your pictures are also useful for comparing different makes because they all seem to mix quite well with each other. cheers

A tastefully based and painted army, which overall "looks right" to me. Good job. :-) MH |

Thanks, it's one of the few armies I've done with more than one manufacturer; a uniform style and basing does a lot to bring them together.
I'm guessing the pikes and the cavalry are hoping the chariot doesn't suddenly bolt forward with those knives sticking out…. Indeed, they're a bit of a pain in game play, especially as they follow up if victorious. Actually, in DBA2.2 their great speed make them ideal for a reserve; I can't help think how it'd look as they fill the gap of a broken element and scythe their way through the fleeing troops--great for morale! |

Ah, the early NKVD! Scythe down your routers or 'persuade' them to go back for seconds….:) |

Ah, the early NKVD! Love it! For someone who delegated the massacre of Romans in Asia to the citizens of those cities, that sounds almost plausible! |

I now have some other figures I can use as imitation legionaries: Corvus Belli veteran Carthaginian spearmen:
