Greetings, I'm looking for recommendations for a line of 28mm Romans to cover the Eastern wars of the Later 3rd and Early 4th Centuries BCE.

Thanks for any tips.

Did Rome fight any Eastern Wars in that period ? Do you mean later 3rd to early 2nd centuries BCE ? In which case any of the Punic Wars ranges will be correct. Unfortunately I know little about 28mm, mine are all old-style 25s.

I have Aventines; very nice minis.

If you are looking to cover that period BC, then Victrix is an option (if you want plastic figures and a fairly comprehensive range).

Agema is another good line!

I was indeed looking "AD", sorry for the confusion. I'm looking for an army to fight the later Parthians and early Sassanid Wars.

A and A miniatures middle imperial roman line might be useful

and they do 4th century Romans to

Between the two ranges you should be able to cover the whole 3rd century AD


They also do Parthians, Palmyrans and Persians as well

A&A Romans would be perfect. They have a great range. Keep an eye on monthly specials. Foundry would be a good option as well.
