Warhammer Ancients

[Celticfire]

the game that is related to GW in only name.

so, how do people like the game? I am tempted to start an army as it costs about a third of what my LM army is going to cost; Especially with this price jack. if you do play, what model line do you use, as i understand, the book encourages you to make conversions of your own. from what the guy at my shop said, i will probably use the old glory miniatures.

Thanks

For anything ancient, I usually use cheap plastic minis that you get in a box of 50 for about 5-10 UK pounds.

If you want a preview of what's available, have a look at:

The scale is 1/72, which is a bit smaller than warhammer (about 22mm) but the detail is fair on most models, especially those by Italeri and Zvezda.

Here are some of Napoleonic era minis:
