Very nice! Nice thing about fighting the Romans is you don't have to feel bad if you lose. I'm sure Jugurtha will strike again! |

Paul, nice report and figures!!!!!!!!! They look like Crusader? Mike Adams |
| Caliban | 12 Aug 2015 8:39 a.m. PST |
Thanks for looking, everyone. Well spotted Mike, I didn't have enough Companion Miniatures for the whole army, so I added in a load of Crusader. They fit well in terms of size. |

Paul, I also have a lot in my armies!!!!!! Mike Adams |

Looks a terrific game! Where did you get the elephants from? |
| Caliban | 12 Aug 2015 10:38 a.m. PST |
Hi JJ, I think it was the fringe package! The elephants are actually by Companion Miniatures, and are very rare indeed. Resin bodies with metal bits and pieces and riders. I only managed to source seven of them, but I grabbed them all when I could. |

Great looking game – thanks Paul. Numidians came up very well. Nice to see the Romans did not have it all their own way! Garry |

That's great looking game withe al of those lovely looking figures. |

Thanks for looking, everyone. Despite painting loads of Romans, my real love is for armies that we don't see very often in full tabletop strength – hence the Numidians, and the Spanish I painted before that. I'd really love to have Galatians, Thracians and Illyrians too. Funnily enough, these guys all lasted longer against the likes of Rome than the headline-grabbing Macedonians and Carhaginians. Plus they can always be used as mercenaries too. |

Paul, I also like those odd armies. I have Spainsh,Numidian and Latin Allies.Plus the Carthaginians,Successors,Phyrus,Persians,Gauls,Repulican,Early and Late and finally Hoplites!!!!! Mike Adams |

Hi Mike, I'm catching up, then! |
| LEGION 1950 | 13 Aug 2015 4:37 a.m. PST |
Paul, slowly. Since I cannot get Companion figures, I will be buying some Victrix Spainsh next year when I catch up on the medical bills!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Mike Adams |

Mike. I bumped into Glenn at the Devizes show, he still plans to cast up Companion figs from time to time. Don't despair! |
| Emperorbaz | 13 Aug 2015 10:37 a.m. PST |
Paul, like you these armies interest me, but I decided that I would build Numidian, Gallic, spanish mini armies so that each can be used in several different armies. Sort of versatile. |

Emperorbaz, thank you for letting me know! I have sent various e-mails and not heard back!!!!!!!!!!!! Mike Adams |
