Romans vs Carthaginians

After Chris P had walked us through Sword and Spear earlier this year, I put on a game in Spyros' gaming room to show off our home grown set. It was a good game - Republican Romans vs the Carthaginians and an interesting game it was too...although to be honest..it was a while ago and I can't remember the results. I think it was a very close run thing with the Romans just getting across the line!

  1. This is a fine looking battle array, John. Is there a mix of Impetvs and non-Impetvs sized bases on the table?

    1. Thanks JF- All the units are Impetus bases. The ones that are smaller are the generals.
