Yesterday I detailed the terrain to be purchased for the project. I mentioned earlier as well that once I started looking at possible armies, one of the campaign sets popped up as an obvious choice. The 2nd Punic War campaign has a good group of armies all of which are fairly competitive and that together will make some interesting combinations for big battle games.
Of course, given the usual wargamer’s megalomania, I could not just leave it at that six but decided to add a seventh, just for interest sake. All these armies will be made with Baccus 6mm figures and based on 15mm sized bases.
The armies:
| List Number | Army | |
| II/9 | Syracusan | |
| II/32 | Later Carthaginian | |
| II/33 | Polybian Roman | |
| II/39a | Spain | The Iberian option was selected rather than the Celtiberian or Lusitanian options as the Iberians fought with both the Carthaginians and the Romans |
| II/11 | Gauls | |
| II/8a | Italy | |
| II/40 | Numidian | This is the extra one added to the set – purely because it just makes sense for some variety. Interestingly I also have a Numidian army to paint for Polemos Ancient |
OK, these then are the armies to be purchased and painted.
doh.. all my 6mm are on Polemos sized bases….
