Other things seem to have taken over recently so not getting as much sorting/basing done at the moment.
My own 70's army had a unit of Hypaspists in it but they seem to be scattered all over the place. Meanwhile there were three units I got from Harry to rebase.

Must admit I like the blue tunics on these.

A great flash back to my misspent youth ....nice troops, I too like the blues .

My first Ancients armies were Airfix, but the Persians and Greeks/Macedonians were my first metal armies - including these.
