Thank you. I like the varied nature of the troop types for this period. However, if I'd thought about it a bit more, I'd have gone with Later Successor. Cataphracts, scythed chariots.....

Great stuff. The nellies are nicely posed, who makes those? Are these all plastics and do you use wire spears?

You already have a late s7ccessor core to add cataphracts and chariots too. Unless you are picky phalangites do not change a lot.

If I was picky, although Pyrrhus "invented" the tower for elephants, the armoured ones came after him.

About 50:50 plastic (HaT, mostly) & Newline metals.

I use wire (floral arrangement). I hammer & shape the ends with a dremmel.
