I made these German again because of their size compared to other figures. Also they have black shields, a German theme I have given my 'Rhine' Legion.
Being German I also gave them longer spears to add to their German flavour. This helps to make them a little different from the other Auxiliary units.
I like the look of this unit with their hasta spears. Somehow they remind me of a Town guard that has been called out for action. There is a nice "phalanx" look going on here.
ReplyDeleteI have a weakness for units of spearmen. There is something about an interlocked wall of shields behind an intimidating barrier of spearheads that just cries out "you aren't coming this way".
I like that. :)
