Pyrrhic Epirote and Tarentine Pikemen Phalanx Re-Based



I rebased my Epirote and Tarentine pikemen phalanx onto single figure bases mounted on movement bases. I do not like my units on multiple bases so lately I've been mounting them on one base, but adjusting the depth depending on type of unit.



Since my Spanish Reconquista and Late Roman/Germanic projects are at playable levels needing just a few character models and units to enhance the gaming experience(more Romans on the way) I decided to turn my attention back to my Pyrrhic project as I wanted another large army project to add to the table.


 My Pyrrhic army is starting off point to eventually make my way into the Successor wars, but that some time off as the Pyrrhic army and their Republican Roman adversaries will keep me quite busy!



The figures are from the excellent Aventine Range which I personally think are some of the best figures out there. I expect the collection to include Aventine, Wargames Foundry and Victrix which all go well together so I foresee no problems in acquiring the figures I need.....I already have a lot so it's going to be a very large project indeed!




 It's an interesting project to do as you get to have fun with color and a whole lot of variety. Some models are not to difficult to paint while others can be very challenging in particular those in linothorax
armor. 



The AHPC is coming up and I have a bunch of Pyrrhic stuff primed and ready to go, but before then I'll be posting a few things I've already finished that are from other periods. The next Pyrrhic unit won't be ready for a little while.

Thanks for viewing!
