Hello,

Q1. Is there anyone who makes a detailed Hannibal in 15mm? I've found Corvus Belli and Friekorps15's so far, though the Friekorps pic is too small to make out detail.

1a. Does anyone know if Xyston will bring out a Hannibal personality pack and citizen cavalry?

Q2. Does anyone have pics of a painted up Xyston Carthaginian Citizen Spearmen and Sacred Band? I notice both sets have some unorthodox troops with their right-foot forward and shields to their rear. I'm concerned they might rank up strangely.

Allain Touller makes one:

If you use that figure with an ESSEX armoured horse, you got a nice hellenistic general too.

Q1- another option is Warmodelling:

They are large 15mm so will go well with Xystons, available in the UK through Warmodelling.co.uk rather than going to the european parent site – don't know about the US though. The horses look a little "stretched" in the bare metal, but much less so when painted up

Thanks to you both. I hadn't heard of Allain Touller before. I might pick up the Warmodelling one anyway since I plan to get their Republican Romans. Good to know their scale matches Xyston.

Who makes Carthaginian Citizen/Libyphoenician cavalry of comparable scale to Xyston?

Corvus Belli and Warmodelling.

Does anyone know a bricks and mortar store in London that stocks Corvus Belli?

I wasn't aware that CB was still making historicals… Or did they just stop adding new minis?

link has everyone I can find with Carthaginian figures.

CB haven't added to the range, but they are still available direct from Spain as far as I know. I can't think of a London store that stocks them.
