I recently purchased the figures shown to the left from several Ebay auctions from a single seller. I was looking for a quick start on a Roman army for Saga and Clash of Spears. These figures were well loved, but arrived in good condition, although I wanted to re-base them on circular 25mm bases to be consistent with my other Saga and Clash of Spears figures. Due to transit damage and just normal wear-and-tear, nearly all of the figures had some touch-ups needed to bring them back up to snuff for tabletop use.
A second unit of allies, these are Italiotes, Etruscians, Campagnians, etc. A single unit of Warriors for Saga, or a large unit for Clash of Spears.
A unit of Triarii with white shields. Just under two units of hearthguards for Saga, or a large unit for Clash of Spears.
A group of red-shielded Triarii. This would make two and a half hearthguard units in Saga or likely two units in Clash of Spears.
These were thrown in for free in the deal. They look more like Macedonians than Roman allies. Let's call them captured soldiers from Pyrrhus' army pressed into Roman service. They might serve as stand-ins for more Velites or even as filler for an allied legion unit.
Two very lonely Velites. I'll paint up some more from my unpainted lead collection to flesh this unit out.
Group shot of the bulk of the Roman infantry and officers.
Project totals: 87 figures re-based, 87 28mm painted figures purchased.

Nice new/old toys Allan…
This seem to be the rebasing season…
I know a lot of people who are indulging… myself included.
All the best. Aly
They look great rebasing is a chore….I know as I am doing some at the moment 👍
Rebasing is always a bit daunting but well worth it.
