Rattas Republic Kickstarter up now for those interested: By the way, the Ninth Age setting will sport Byzantine Ratmen.
Would this mean that SPQR in this case means Senatus Populus Qui Rattus? But seriously, these chaps look great! They’d look especially good as Skaven that have been looting and pillaging my version of Tilea (which is based on the Roman Empire rather than GW’s version based on Renaissance Italy which frankly bored me to death).
Or mayhap Senatus Pestis Qui Rattus? Agreed on Roman Italy being more interesting as the base for a setting!
I was looking at this project again when I found that the company who made these also made a faction called Rudianos Raiders - Celtic Goblins! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/dragonclawminiatures/rudianos-raiders-the-goblins-rise Now I really have seen everything!
Wanna see something weird? Flintloque - Napoleonic wars… French are Elves, British are Orcs, Germans are Dwarves, Portuguese are Goblins, etc or Panzerfäuste - WWII…
