I saw that Osprey is putting out a new rulebook called Broken Legions. It is a skirmish game that includes mythical beasts ect. as part of the game. So, Roman Legionaries fighting Germans who also have a werewolf. Roman/fantasy. Yet, the rules can also be used as straight historical.

I am very interested and was wondering if anyone else was?
Doesn't come out until July. Sounds fun.

Werewolves in the Black Forest? Vampires in the Carpathian mountains? Mummies in Egypt? Amazons in the Crimea?

No wonder the Roman Empire collapsed.

Perfect! I have a Hail Caesar Dacian Army with Werewolves and Carpathian Vampires ready to go toe-to-toe with Trajan's Legions.

Thanks for the heads up!

Pinnacle has had a "Weird Rome" setting for Savage Worlds for some time now.

Very nice materials available if you like their miniatures rules and useful for conversions if you don't.

Dacians feature quite prominently as it happens.

Interesting, may roman legions be backed by giant eagles, or wolf packs?

What do we call this?

Classic Ancient Horror? LegionPunk? The X Scrolls? Boudicca, the ExSanguini Fighter? Caesarian Science Fiction? SpartaPunk? Toga Terror? HengeGate 1? Phringe Philosophers? The Lost Navarch? Orgy Black?..wait…

I guess it's time to put the Zvezda "Legion of the Damned" undead cohort together that has been sitting on my shelves. That will probably take a year in itself.

I like Classic Ancient Horror. Or maybe Caesarian pulp.
