Warlord Games, Spanish Caetrati command, Hail Caesar Wargaming Miniatures - This kind of warfare was new to the romans and they learned quickly. In truth, however, the difference wasn’t so defined. The spanish excelled in guerilla tactics, using the difficult terrain of their homeland to good effect, executing swift sharp raids upon the unsuspecting roman legions. The experience against the spanish tribes was responsible for a number of martial reforms within the republic in order to defeat this new enemy and rome was forced to utilise every method available to them, in order to subdue these ferocious hardened warriors. The caetra, describes the small round shield of the skirmisher as opposed to the heavier and longer scutum of the main battle line warriors.

 

Warlord Games, Caesarian Roman Cavalry, Hail Caesar Wargaming Miniatures - The ensuing rout carried the pompeian army with it Ð and that is why today we say, Ôhail caesarÕ and not Ôhail pompeyÕ. During the civil war, pompey raised a huge army from his strongholds in the eastern provinces. The horsemen of the later roman republic were unlikely to be roman at all. These included cavalry units from greece and thrace, as well as those from further afield in anatolia and syria. They also carried an oval shield similar to that borne by the auxiliary infantry. Roman cavalry were equipped along much the same lines as auxiliary infantry, with iron mail armour, bronze helmets, and a mix of stout spears and light javelins they could throw. Caesar famously recruited his cavalry from among the gauls and germans that he fought and allied with during his campaigns of conquest. Although far from numerous, cavalry played a decisive part in many battles of the period, including at the battle of pharsalus when pompeyÕs cavalry drove away caesarÕs numerically inferior horsemen, only to fall into disorder when caesar brought his infantry reserves forward to counter the milling mass of riders.

 

Warlord Games, Caesarian Roman Officers, Hail Caesar Wargaming Miniatures - Optio, one per century as second-in-command to the centurion. Lead your armies to victory with your choice of commander. Pilus prior, senior centurion of the cohort. Primus pilus, (literally ‘first file’, not spear) the commanding centurion of the first cohort and the senior centurion of the entire legion. Dux, a general in charge of two or more legions. Use these superbly detailed officers as one of the many positions within a cohort decurion, leader of a troop of cavalry (14-30 men). Primus ordinis, the commanding officer of each century in the first cohort with the exception of the first century of the cohort. .

 

Warlord Games, Caesarian Roman Ballista, Hail Caesar Wargaming Miniatures - . Marching to war, the legions would not be without their support. Loaded with bolts or stone ‘shot’ the ballista was a highly accurate weapon (there are many accounts right from its early history of single soldiers being picked off by the operators).

 

Warlord Games, Macedonian Successor Starter Army, Hail Caesar Wargaming Miniatures - The dynasty that he founded is known as the seleucid dynasty, and the seleucid empire lasted in some form or other until the annexation of syria by the romans. Seleucid (mid 3rd-2nd centuries bc) seleucus emerged from the civil wars that followed alexander the greatÕs death as the master of much of the old persian empire. Pyrrhic (late 3rd century bc) pyrrhus of epirus was one of the greatest generals of his age Ð it was in his blood Ð after all he was second cousin to alexander the great. Ptolemaic (mid 3rd-1st centuries bc) following the break up of alexander the greatÕs empire ptolemy i emerged as the ruler of egypt. The successor army box contains 100 plastic phalangites 8 metal companion cavalry 1 metal and resin successors war elephant 3 phalangite shield decal sheets and plastic bases. The dynasty he founded was to last the longest of all of the successors, ending only with the death of cleopatra in 30 bc. He became king of epirus and macedonia and led armies against the romans in support of the greek cities of southern italy (known as magna graecia). The victories he won during that campaign were achieved at such cost to his own army the term Ôpyrrhic victoryÕ passed into common usage to describe a victory almost as crippling to the winners as the losers. The chief rival of the ptolemies was the seleucid empire to the north. A perfect balance of core strength, fast cavalry, and a hard hitting elephant regiment. The seleucid list in the hail caesar biblical and classical supplement represents the armies of the empire before the rot set in, when the seleucids could still give the romans a good run for their money and contend for the hegemony of the hellenistic east. This starter set can be used to represent forces for the seleucid (mid 3rd-2nd centuries bc), ptolemaic (mid 3rd-1st centuries bc), or the pyrrhic (late 3rd century bc) empires.

LATE WAR PANZERGRENADIERS (30 minifigures + 3 HANOMAGS), 28mm Bolt Action Wargaming Miniatures - Speeding into the thickest of the action from the armoured confines of their “neue” late war version hanomag halftracks, the panzergrenadiers are the third reich’s fire brigade, plugging gaps in the german defences or taking full advantage of weak spots in the enemy battlelines. Combining mobility and protection with the suppressive firepower of their halftracks machine guns, each squad of panzergrenadiers can lay down a withering hail of small arms fire this boxes set contains 3 of our superb new plastic sd. Kfz 251/1 ausf d half-tracks and 30 multi-pose plastic german infantry, a great core for taking on the ivans, tommies or amis few vehicles are as instantly identifiable as the sd. Kfz 251, or hanomag as it was also known. There are several optional extras (such as mg42 machine guns, stowage, etc) in the kit meaning your hanomags will look different every time. Of course, the halftracks will need their cargo of panzergrenadiers so this set includes 30 multi-pose plastic german panzergrenadiers too with stacks of options for posing and equipping, these will give you hours of fun from the modelling alone, even before you get to smite the enemies of the third reich pack contains 3 plastic hanomags and 30 plastic foot figures. The germans produced over 10,000 of these excellent machines and they served on most fronts from 1943 to the last days in berlin. In addition, each hanomag comes with a sheet of full colour waterslide decals to finish it off perfectly. This 1/56th scale plastic kit is designed with the wargamer in mind, relatively few parts allows you to get it on the tabletop quickly but not at the expense of accuracy or detail. Its cross-country performance was much better than any truck and enabled infantry to stay with the leading panzers for mutual support. Combining speed, protection and firepower, it ensured the infantry would break through to take and hold enemy positions.

Warlord Games, Ariovistus, Germanic Chieftan, Hail Caesar Wargaming Miniatures - . Their success was upturned by the arrival of julius caesar and the battle of vosges. At one point ariovistus was seen by the roman senate as friend, but increasing migrations from across the rhine caused consternation amongst rome and her gaulish allies. Leader of the suebi, ariovistus led a confederation of germanic tribes to gaul aiding allied tribes of the arverni against the aedui. In the aftermath of the battle the former war leader fled back across the rhine and into political obscurity Ð at least in the eyes of rome. Ariovistus refused all demands to quell the tide of settlers and ridiculed rome, even inviting caesar to attack, an offer the power hungry consul could not refuse. All the detail we have comes from caesarÕs rex germanorum.
