Mythologic Greek army complete
Hi everyone! It’s high time to write a new post in this blog. In the end of June, I showed you the creatures painted for a Mythological Greek army. Since that post, I’ve been painting some Greek hoplites, and I have now enough of them to consider my modest army complete. Modest meaning that this is a 123 pts army for l’Art de la Guerre v4 – with house rules for the Fantasy elements.
Here you are the result (before basing):
The army list is as follows:
General in chief, brilliant: 4 pts
Subgeneral, competent: 2 pts
1 element of Heavy Centaurs: 10 pts
1 element of Light Centaurs: 7 pts
3 elements of Hoplites: 24 pts
1 element of Amazons: 10 pts
3 elements of Psiloi: 12 pts
1 element of Minotaurs: 36 pts
1 Cyclops: 18 pts
Let’s have a closer look at the hoplites:
At ADLG, you need 8 figures for a Heavy Infantry element. The first figures on the left are Theban hoplites, with a general element behind. The next are a mix of Athenian and Spartan hoplites, with a Spartan general in the background.
I’ve also painted 4 more Amazons to complete the Amazon hoplites element.
For hoplites, it’s always good to have a screen of Psiloi, here are these young and agile warriors.
Let’s have a closer look at the hoplites. I like painting these guys because of their shields, or aspis. Some figures have engraved patterns on their shields (some of the Hät Thebans and Zvezda hoplites), but I must say that I prefer plain shields to paint whatever design I wish, as you can see on the Caesar, Linear and the venerable Atlantic figures.
The last close-ups focus on the command elements – first the Theban subgeneral:
And the Spartan commander.
So what’s next ? Still some work. I need to base all these figures, and paint some new ones to have a 250 pts army, which means:
– more hoplites
– more Amazons, hoplites, Psiloi and command
– some more Centaurs, or maybe Minotaurs
They also need some opponents, the Mythological Egyptians! That’s another story, but let me tell you that the paintjob is well under way 🙂
See you!
