The Galations

 

When I was going through the figures some of the GA4 spearmen were painted slightly differently to the rest. Naturally, I thought 'OK, make them medium rather that light medium infantry and call them mercenary spearmen from beyond the Alps'.

Then I thought 'why not do all the spearmen on MI bases and call them Galations?' 

So I now have 80 Galation spearmen... which really means I don't have enough of either the LMI or MI for full armies, which means I probably need a load more figure...

Incidentally, the lack of swordsmen in the range bothers me. I've looked at the various figures and this figure looks like the one that works best as a swordsman. So need to do some of them as well...

  1. Look very impressive ranked up like that, look forward to see what you come up with for the swordsmen.

    1. Think of this figure with a sword instead of a spear :) I'll put a test one up later.
