Strategos

Hi,

Finally got around to my first officer stand for the Impetus Antigonids. While I generally play with attached command, and include command figures on most of my stands, I like the idea of a marker to indicate the presence of the commander on the field.

 

Impetus Unit Type: Command
Base Size: 3cm x 3cm
Manufacturer: Old Glory 15mm, Xyston 15mm

I figure this guy will eventually end up as a subordinate commander to Antigonus and Demetrios, but for now, he can lead my 300 points of completed stands. Model on foot is Xyston, mounted model is OG.

 

I realize the fellow on horseback is a bit of an anachronism. The Corinthian helmet he's sporting had more or less fallen out of use by the time of the successors. I considered using a head swap, but frankly, Corinthian helmets rock, and I wanted to get this guy on the table.

 

I seem to be on a bit of a command kick lately. I just finished up a set of command stands for the 6mm SYW French as well. Detailed pictures of them will likely serve as next Sunday's post.

 

Next up should be a battle report from our first game of Maurice. I've got one scheduled for Wednesday night. I'm still playing around with national advantages / tweaking my list, but I'll try to get as detailed a report up as I can. Until then . . .
