These are cart-mounted Ballistae that, whilst strictly part of my EIR Army, I sometimes use with the Caesarians. They were surprisingly time-consuming to assemble...
Tonight I have been basing my final Pictish unit and rebasing some Pictish and Viking archers, and sticking more bits of yet more carts together.

they looks "thin". Sorry, I m starting to be excigent after so many eyes candies.
I have complained to the Emporer Trajan that he should make his artillery more interesting. ;-)
They are OK; I have thought about adding a mounted Centurion to the unit but have not found the right figure, yet.

the artillery itself is ok, I was more complaining about the servants. The carts are ok.
The crew were very difficult as there were no crew figures in the right size. So I had to cut up Foundry Caesarians and convert the arms in particular, and give them head swaps. That is why they look a bit odd! Some worked better than others...
Order for the next article : a tutorial on how you make your bases with links for all the components and multiple pictures for each steps : do it or you re a chicken !
Cluck, cluck cluck!
Might be useful. But there are many stages....
Nice, I like the extra detailing on the yokes of the carts. They look very tricky to put together, but worth it.
With all your fast moving Warbands tearing all over the place, It's nice to have a bit of mobility in your Artillery....Fall back!
Hi Secundus, the yokes are a one piece casting- I'd recommend them. I bought 3 more last week. I may stick barrels on some and use them as water carts. The horses are horrible, though, absolutely huge!
