15mm Carthaginians

 Carthaginians and Romans are a classic pair for ancient wargamers so this is almost a must have at some point. 

As mentioned in my Ancient Greeks post, the beginnings of this army started something like twenty years ago with Greek Hoplites and other merc types so I could cludge together a Carthaginian army for a DBM tournament. It was pretty much forgotten after that but, much like all my projects, over the years I come back to it from time to time and add a little more and this is were we currently stand.

I've touched up and partly repainted (to a greater or lesser degree as required) the old figures and mixed in some new ones to fill out the ranks just because bigger armies are always better armies. Lastly I've rebased the lot just for the sake of coherency since they're pretty much just a bunch of mercenaries.


This is still an ongoing project and I'm still umming and ahing over how to base my cavalry since I'm not crazy about rebasing DBA three to a base cavalry to two to a base Javelin Cavalry for Triumph
