Sumptuous. The auxiliaries lurking in your new vineyards look really good!

Lovely looking game Simon.

The terrain set-up really captures the feel of the period.

Looks great! Who is the maker of the praetorians?

Simon, great looking game and figures! The figures are BTD and Foundry ? Mike

Cheers chaps!

The praetorians are Foundry Salehs with converted A&A signifers and cornicens, and a BTD Optio. I'll be posting about them later this week.

Hi Mike, yes almost all one or t'other. I prefer the Foundry Salehs with their cast on shields. A box of figures was dropped by my helper elf on the way to the show; all the Foundry were fine, but half the BTDs lost their shields, and I had to spend a frantic 20 mins re-applying them with Dr Phil's Superglue.

Cheers, Simon

Hi Darrell,

We were in a challenging spot, surrounded by the hordes of Cattraeth in front of us, League of Augsberg at one end and the spiffing Sudan game behind us! Stiff competition, it is a wonder anyone made it through.

I'm sorry I missed you, it would have been nice to put a face to a name- maybe next May? I'm planning to be a regular at Partizan, quite my favourite show.

Thanks to everyone else, too.

Cheers Simon
