The last phalanx...

...for the time being.


This is an unusual unit, as only the front 2 elements are fully based.  The rear 4 bases are temporary, and consist of 32 figures in the same pose.  When the figures that are still off with the painter arrive, I'll mix them together with these, and re-base.  

I plan to carry on with the phalanx in a more low-key manner, after Raphia.  At some point, I'll want to build a late Macedonian or Seleucid phalanx, too.

Wow, that's impressive. Way to go with pike-armed formations. Really looking forward to the final setup.

Cheers, Tilman (today less of a grinch)

The whole issue of stats is fascinating, Tilman, and I certainly didn't mind chatting about it. After all, there are lies, damn lies and stats... I'm still trying to get my head around blogs, Facebook and the rest.

I enjoyed your Sharp post!

Cheers, Simon

That's another nice lot of pikemen there Simon.

And you're going to do more? What a glutton for punishment! :)
