15mm Essex Miniatures

DBA 2.2 (12 elements)

1 x (General)3Kn, 1 x 2Lh, 4 x 4Pk, 4 x 3Ax, 1 x 2Ps, 1 x 4Sp

Lysimachus became governor of Thrace after the death of Alexander the Great and later manage to annex Macedon and western Asia Minor. The heavy cavalry (Kn) were a mix of Macedonian or Thracian nobility and the light horse were Thracian. In addition to the (Pk) Phalangites, Lysimachus had Greek subject Hoplites from minor coastal cities (Sp) and Thracian Peltasts (Ax) as well as archers or Slingers (Ps).



















Phalangites (4Pk)




Thracian Peltasts (3Ax)





Thracian Light Horse (2Lh) wearing Boiotian helmets?


Thracian skirmishers (2Ps)


28mm Successors WIP 3


Manage to finish off the 28mm Foundry Macedonian figures painted as Successors. The miniatures are mounted on 40mm x 40mm bases. Three 40x40 bases (12cm frontage) representing one basic impetvs unit...




Commands and Colors Ancients option: displaying below, 4 strength point Heavy infantry (pike) units. I have enough units here to play CCA successors scenarios....












The units/bases above allows me to play with Hail Caesar and to The Strongest rules sets.  I like the 40mm x 40mm bases which I will use for all infantry,skirmishers etc. Cavalry bases may be an issue my commanders will be mounted on circular bases....

Thanks guys for your base size suggestions!
