Roma Bellatrix: Officer Making Sacrifice

I am not currently working on a project regarding Romans, I now, but I expect to be later this year.

I was asking on the LAF if anybody knew of a suitable Roman priestly mini to include in an army, and the user 'Morgan' was so kind as to send me this Warlord Games mini.

I hope to find the time and motivation to make some of my Wargames Factory Caesarean/Late Republican Romans into a warband for OGAM and Broken Legions (and probably Blood Eagle), then over time expand it for A Fantastic SAGA.

Lundeborg Iron Age/Viking Market 2015

The weekend after our return from the Vacation in Italy and Switzerland, the girls and I went to the annual Iron Age market in Lundeborg - of course all dressed up in our Viking/Medieval gear.

Again this year, the market was visited by a Roman maniple,, and some gladiators.

'You call that a bow...?'

If there is archery to be tried...

Some Gladiator action:

Legionaire drill (it was raining, and the Romans don't like their equipment rusting):

That is what I have from last year's market. I think we are in Spain at the time of this year's market, but we shall have to see about that...
