It isn't so much that they go solid, it's the square corners that cause discomfort.

Square corners are never uncomfortable, they are a thing of beauty

Probably depends on where you put them.

Square is normal. You can't balance on a curve.

Thought I'd message on here to get the juices flowing for our game!!
Gary...any ideas on what sizes our respective forces need to be?
And do we know who we're all bringing etc?

I suggest we use Simon's force as a guide for size. It might be good plan to have Jeremy and Jamie with a Carthage/Rome alliance Vs Simon and I with a Greek/Trojan theme. That would give each side a heavy infantry force (Hoplites and legionaries) and A medium infantry force with good mounted troops (Carthage/warband/cavalry Vs Medium Trojan infantry with chariots)
However I've got 27 chariots painted so far so we'll need a big table!
