Very crisp.

Just a thought, the figure on the left with the javelin in the upright position - I’ve seen a lot of this pose in various people’s armies, but shouldn’t the javelin be pointing downwards? As in ‘ready to be thrown’ like the other figures rather than ‘ready to jab’?

I did think that at the time but thought I needed a couple of 'late commers' to the frey. Velites are keen but not always the most clued up.

Well, that's a blast from the past and no mistake. They could have escaped from any number of early wargames periodicals. :)
