I've ordered the book. Will organize the Romans as per Gary's guidence. I do plan on adding more but 2 legions/divisions plus allies might be my limit so happy to join forces as necessary.

I've used the pics to figure out what I have should be:

Cav Div:
3 x Aux Cav
1 x Cataphract (possibly small as 6 figures)

Infantry across 3 other Divs:
8 x Legionary units (3 x Praetorian and 1 x Elite)
4 x Auxiliaries
2 x Elephants
2 x Auxiliary Archers
1 x Aux Archers (small)
2 x Skirmish Archers
2 x Skirmish Slingers
2 x Scorpion (Light Artillery)
1 x Ballista (Medium Artillery)

Plus maybe 1 or 2 other bits and pieces, but nothing 'done' as yet

No problem. The Trojan Gatlings will sort them out.

I didnt manage that Extra Heavy Cavalry unit Gary so very much doubt it will be ready for November. Just in case it was a balancing item in the army lists !

Since we've lost Jamies huge Roman army do we need a rethink?
