Victrix Macedonian Phalangite Command

Sorry for the back to back posts, but I ended up working on these right after making the previous post. Interestingly, the Victrix set comes with 27 figures – which at first seems like an unusual number, but ended up okay for me with a 24-man phalanx formation and these 3 command on a separate base. This works okay for Hail Caesar, but for something like WAB, the command would be part of the formation-proper, front and center.

The standard and the officer’s shield have LBMS transfers from the Phalangite set. The standard bearer and musician’s shields are metal embossed ones from Crusader – which I’ve had for many years. For the record, the Crusader shields are a good alternative if you don’t want to use decals or transfers – you just need to paint them bronze and give them a wash and highlights.

The figures themselves are nicely proportioned and cleanly sculpted. I don’t recall seeing any mold lines.

As mentioned in the previous post, I would not hesitate picking up more of these if I were to create a larger Macedonian/Successor army.  The one cautionary note would be that they are slightly larger than many other makes, but not by much.

Thanks again for stopping by, and happy hobby endeavors to you all!

Farewell to Epirus!
