Hey guys. I just started an imperial Romans project in 1/72 scale using strelets as my primary figure manufacturer. I have was wondering if you had any idea of a way or kit that would be a good way to get more signifer's, as there is only one signum in the main legionary sets and it is held by a centurion apparently trying to rally his troops.

The HaT Roman Command set – link ?

See the Strelets Praetorian set (as the text says, the signifer could equally well be legionary):

Why Strelets, though? (I must say, I speak from the perspective of mainly using high-realism figures like HäT or Zvezda)

The early Strelets EIRs were admittedly pretty crude, but see here what Konrad the Great has made of their latest, much improved, sets:

HaT and Zvezda EIRs both have shortcomings.

In any case, Newline do a pretty good Foot Command set. It's metal, so a little more pricey, but it's closer in sculpting style. link

Thank you all. Now that I have a source of signifer's, my army is needing corniciens.
