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! 😆😆😆
