KOW Historical: Roman 10 mm Army


About a year ago I played a series of solo Warmaster games between Romans and Ancient Britons.
Warmaster was quite a fiddly game to play solo and I kept getting lost as to who's turn was who's.


So I am going to have another go, but this time use Kings of War Historical as the rules base. More straight forward to play as only the acting player rolls any dice. I've play tested a couple of skirmishes and am happy to have a go.


As a result here is my 1400 point KOW historical Roman Army, which I will be adding too as the games go on.













This is the list at the present time

Paetinus Nolus General
Marcellus Castorious Army Standard Bearer
Caius Pictor, Army Musician

Horde of Warriors
Horde of Heavy Warriors
Troop of Archers
Two Regiments of Cavalry
Two Troops of Light Cavalry
Regiment of Praetorian Guard, currently led by
Milonias Vegetius


I am going to paint a stand of troops because one of the Warrior units is a mix of troop types. So this lot below are the first painting I have to do.

The big thing I have to do is to draw the army together by making the basing the same, its all over the shop currently. 


These are Pendraken Romans, very nice.

Will be posting the Britons in the next few days and then I will be playing a solo battle between the two.

    1. Cheers Simon, small, but very little detail, so you can get away with impressionistic painting... well that's my excuse :-)
