I have recently started a Roman army from Warlord games. I plan to use it for Hail Caesar. I was just wondering who else makes Romans that work well with Warlords. I just want to mix in a few others to break up the uniformity of the army. On a whim I did just order some Aventine command packs. After ordering them I thought what if they do not mix well….thus the question. |

Which of their Roman ranges are you using – late republican or early imperial one? |

If you go to the Lead Adventure forum and take a look at "Age of Gods myths and Empires" the is a comparison link right at the top. |

The earlier foundry range and Old Glory will mix nicely with them. |

rhacelt, Aventine will be big!!! I would use Foundry EIR . They should fit well with Warlord. Also you could try 1st Corps or Newline. They might work also. Cheers Mike Adams |

Aventine really are the bees knees though. Make we want to come back to 28mm Ancients in a really bad way. Too bad I would lack opponents since almost all play 15mm around these parts. |

Warlord's EIR Romans don't even go with each other! The legionaries are a completely different size to the auxiliaries. But, yes, the early Foundry ones match best. |

The Warlord metal auxilia are a good match for Foundry Perry, but their legionaries are rather smaller. The auxiliary centurion above is Foundry and the others Warlord. |

Thanks guys. If you order foundry how do you know if it is early(perry) or late? |

From the best I can tell, on this page: link The collection listed as Imperial Roman Army is the new stuff and the others, the ones with just "Imperial Roman" at the top are the old ones. |

Yes what Pictor said. The Imperial Roman Army are the larger Steve Saleh sculpts. All the others are Perry. |

Thanks again guys. I just ordered ten packs. I will try and make mostly separate units with them with maybe a few mixed in to the odd unit. My goal is to have a full army built and painted by Easter…..wish me luck!! |
