Successor Phalangites

So, being on a Seleucid thing, I've rebased a load of the Successor phalangites I got a couple of years ago. Being 40 man units, they don't really fit in with DBX units - 4x4 means multiples of 16 so they are being reduced to 32 figures.

 Having said that, 4 32 figure units still makes quite a good force.

The first two units make a useful combination of 'Bronze Shields' and 'Siver Shields'. 

I always quite like the use of Hollywood  black for  armour. Not very good shields, but I don't think I'll ever repaint them.

This unit aren't Minfigs phalangites, they're Garrison conversions. Nice figures, technically they're pirates of course as they have been home cast by someone. Still, they look good, so as far as I'm concerned this unit is now 'officially' Garrison...

  2. I like the black armour. Did one of my 54mm phalanxes that way.
    You had me befuddled for a bit with the not Minifig comment until I realized it applied to the next unit.

    1. I did a Carian unit in black armour - it works well.
