Here are my Ancient Spanish. Allies or opponents to Romans and Carthaginians depending upon circumstances. Ancient writers always gave their martial qualities five stars and a recommendation. Above Forged in Battle Light Horse and Minifigs slingers.
Another variant on the theme. Forged in Battle Spanish Heavy Cavalry supporting young warriors from the same stable. The young warriors have slings but are eager to fight close to. Consider them a sort of long range Velite.
The two units in cameo.
Forged in Battle heavy infantry. Five to a base in Civitates Bellantes and considered "Javelinmen".
More of the same below.
Once again. High morale and with some armour.
Old and new. Essex, Chariot and QRF.
More Spanish light cavalry.
QRF Slingers below.
Minifigs slingers. Old I know, but there is a lot to like.
A final group of young warriors.
The last of the Spanish heavy cavalry.
Should you be Ancient Spanish inclined Forged in Battle are well worth a look. I'm also becoming interested in Cromarty Forge plastic/resin. I'm reliably told that they scale with Essex and that they do not break if they hear you swearing. Promising.
More great stuff OB! I particularly like the Forged in Battle figures...and I can thoroughly recommend Cromarty Forge figures!
ReplyDeleteThanks Keith. Yeah saw yours from Cromarty. I might get a unit of Celtiberians.
DeleteLovely stuff OB, I need to pick up some Spanish for my own Punic War project
ReplyDeleteThanks Neil. What scale are you using? if 15mm Forged in Battle are good. So are QRF but they are currently in Limbo.
DeleteGreat looking Spanish! I've mislaid my montfort Selucid book and was shocked how much it's going for! Nice mix of manufacturers too!

Another cracking looking army OB, very colourful and lots of different units in it.
ReplyDeleteThanks Iain. Yes, they are going for a fortune. I have the Achaemenid one and the Justinian one. I should have bought the others too. We live and learn.
