The remaining 2 units of Numidian warband. No elephants were harmed during the basing of these units.
During Caesar's African campaign, Numidian infantry were numerous, if not particularly effective. I tend to mix them in with my Numidian skirmishers for games with my "To the Strongest!" rules.
The figures are a mix of Foundry (Greek and Numidian), Companion and Crusader, I painted around half of them, and finished others from eBay and that I bought from Stephen Hales.
I have lots more of these unpainted in the loft, and will return to this army again. BTW, if anyone has any spare Companion imitation legionaries, I'm after some. Juba apparently had 4 legions-worth, which would be around 190 minis in the scale I'm doing, and so far I only have 40.
Very nice painting again. The basing is excellent.
ReplyDeleteThey look great finished.
ReplyDeleteOutstanding units. The variety is really appealing.
ReplyDeleteNice warbands, the standards are lovely too. Best, Dean
