Another expanded DBA army:

You'll shoot your eye out, kid!
30/11/2017 at 12:51 #77398CameronianParticipantYour wish is my command, close ups on the blog thingy at:

I share your sentiments re 1/72 over 15mm for ancients. The plastics are cheap as chips and while they don’t offer the same range of figures, outfits like Newline offer high quality metals which fit nicely, so are great for gap filling in the ranks. 1/72 chariots and elephants look way better

Being a fellow 1/.72 aficionado, I can but agree.
Question: do you base & use 15mm or 25 mm movement?

01/12/2017 at 00:00 #77483CameronianParticipantThanks for your interest guys.
They are based to the DBA 20/25mm size at 60mm frontage. Depth as needed by the figures, gave up on 20mm deep a long time ago. Numbers of figures to bases tends still to be to DBA but the DBM lists can give more insight.

01/12/2017 at 10:08 #77510CameronianParticipantNeglected to mention movement. Used DBA 3.0 base widths. However I’ve gone over to the dark side and now use hex terrain, rounding up or down the base width movements to suit the hex size. I’m a solo gamer so makes no nevermind.

Indeed, a burden we all share. When I started doing these expansions it seemed like a good idea, but with a hundred-odd Kushites to paint and several other armies waiting in the wings, I’m no longer convinced
