In Thomo’s Armies 1 – Late Roman I described the army I had in 15mm. I spent some time this morning and worked out the contents of that army against the DBMM lists (book 2). The next target is to see how much I remembered correctly this weekend when I go to Mum’s to fetch the figures.
So, I collected the figures and I have more or less a Late Imperial Roman Army. When I built this I had too many of some elements and not enough of others, however, now I can make the following for DBMM 2.0:
Quantity | Description | Cost | Total |
1 | CnC – Reg Cv(O) | 28 | 28 |
2 | Sub General – Reg Cv(O) | 28 | 56 |
2 | Clibinarii – Reg Kn(X) | 13 | 26 |
4 | Equites – Reg Cv(O) | 8 | 32 |
6 | Equites Illyriciani – Reg LH(O) | 5 | 30 |
2 | Equites Sagittarii – Reg LH(F) | 5 | 10 |
4 | Equites Sagittarii Indigenae – Irr LH(F) | 4 | 16 |
16 | Legionarii – Reg Bd(O) | 7 | 112 |
16 | Auxilia Palatina – Reg Ax(S) | 5 | 80 |
2 | Auxilia Palatina Sagittarii – Reb Bw(O) | 5 | 10 |
8 | Legionary Archers – Reg Ps(O) | 2 | 16 |
8 | Auxiliary Archers – Reg Ps(O) | 2 | 16 |
4 | Skirmishers – sling Reg Ps(O) | 2 | 8 |
Total | 440 |
So, that is one army that is possible for Cancon for 2011 (although I will need to reduce the contents a little as I think that competition is 375 AP per army).
I’ll look at the hairy barbarians later.
