Ratwig's January OWAC VI WAB Romano-British Rank and File Entry: Cohors III Nerviorum, (256 Points)


For my first entry I am submitting Decurio Crisius and Cohors III Nerviorum, a unit of 32 Pedyt. They are not too hot as their weapon skill of 2 puts them on par with goblins... The troops are equipped with thrusting spear and large shield (+1) and have full command of leader (+5), standard (+5) and musician (+5), which brings them in at 201 points. They have the Shieldwall ability, which along with their large size, helps with their durability a little. Decurio Crisius is equipped with a sword, large shield (+3), heavy throwing spear (+1) and light armor (+3) for a total of 55 points. This brings the total points up to 256. All figures are Gripping Beast, and the spears are brass rod pounded flat on one end and sharpened.

And that is a wrap for submission one.

It's Jack time! Ratwig out.

  8. There's a grave danger of you making me want to paint historicals for the first time in over a decade. These look great!
