    So guy I'm doing a Death army all Skeleton and I want to theme them on the Roman's so I need shields, weapons, heads with closed helmets or made of plastic/resin.

    I've looked at Warlord games shields but have no idea how they compare on scale etc

    So anyone got any advice/tips/links

    Cheers

    Happened across your question.

    It looks like they are 28mm, like warhammer stuff, and found a good picture at this link next to a bretonnian men-at-arms: http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/294864.page

    Not skeletons, but it looks like they would Warlod Games would work pretty well with GW stuff.

    Also here are a few more research links I came across of people doing similar things:

    "28mm Undead Roman Legions On the March!" Update at Maksim's Blog: http://theminiaturespage.com/boards/msg.mv?id=124516

    Alternative Skeleton Miniatures Selected by the White Knight- skeleton Romans are halfway down the page, looks like he used a miniature company named zvedza: http://www.frothersunite.com/files/wk/sc/skel/skel1/undead.html

    Also not sure if you tried it but I bet the dudes over at the Vampire Counts website have tried something like this already, unless you have already been there and they had nothing I haven't checked them yet.

    Fantastic! Brettonian undead can look amazing, and considering your paint log I am sure you won't disappoint. Looking forward to the pictures!
