    A&A roman range is by far my favorite romans. Aventine ones are probably best sculpted, but A&A romans have some king of "mojo" the others don't have. I am so sorry for the issue with the varnish. I run into that issue, but I had no other solution rather than to change the varnish. Anyway, great collection.

    This was an exception game! I was the Roman Cavalry Commander in Sundays game...loved it! My son, Dan had a blast working the German center.

    Obviously the battle map that was set out in the Osprey book has both armies facing off, but do you feel that 28mm battles start off like this more often than not? just wondering as I'm looking into 28mm figures because I love the miniatures, but really struggle to see how they're practical for gaming purposes.

    • @alexanderbergbacka6825
      @alexanderbergbacka6825 3 дні тому

      In my experience 28mm miniatures are the absolute best for skirmish games, TTRPGs, and medium scale engagements where you want to be able to see the details on the individual miniatures but still don't have piles and piles of them on the table. They get somewhat inconvenient for genuinely large scale games, but as you can see in the video they also look spectacular in the effort.

    • @TriariusWarGaming
      @TriariusWarGaming 2 дні тому

      Yes there is definitely a trade off between the nice looking 28mm figures and the size required to pull off a spectacle. This kind of project is also not feasible for someone just getting in the hobby - it takes to develop the skills to manage army creation at this level. I'm still learning my self how to pull off these big projects. What I would suggest is start small and then do a "slow grow". Start out doing small scale clashes and build up over time. One thing you can do is paint parallel armies. Get a box of 28mm of something you like and then get some 15 or 10mm figures. Paint both at this same time, you can do some large small scale armies for cheap in the meantime while you develop your 28mm collection. Storage is the biggest thing to thing about with 28mm, you definitely need some storage space like a spare closet or basement (or under the bed etc) to keep all the figures. The bottom line though is if you don't like the figures you are painting you won't paint them. And you can do some great smaller clashes with 28mm on a 6 X4 - that is what most of the games I play at home are.

    • @BearGrisham
      @BearGrisham 2 дні тому

      @@TriariusWarGaming absolutely agree. Your collections are awesome for sure and I think when it comes to the larger engagements my worry is not having the depth in the table to pull it off. You can always make the table wider but 6ft seems close to the limit for most people in terms of reach. I’m going to pick up a box of 28mm as I love painting that scale, but with living close to Eureka miniatures I have found myself investing in the AB range which has some amazing sculpted models.

      @@alexanderbergbacka6825 Yes the range of miniatures is staggering at 28mm, plus they look great. I’ve just recently invested in some AB 20mm WW2 miniatures for Chain of command as I found it a nice trade off between size and detail.

    5:02 This statement is a significant exaggeration and misrepresentation of historical events. "The Romans lost a lot of troops" = The loss of three complete legions, which was a severe blow to the Roman self-image and their superiority Here's a more accurate description of what happened after the Battle of Teutoburg Forest (Varusschlacht): 1. Roman retaliation: The Romans did launch retaliatory campaigns into Germania under Germanicus between 14-16 CE, but these were limited in scope and duration. 2. No total destruction: While these campaigns caused damage and casualties, they did not result in the destruction of all of Germania or the killing of everyone. 3. Limited objectives: The Roman expeditions were primarily punitive in nature, aimed at recovering lost standards and avenging the defeat, rather than attempting to conquer and occupy the entire region. 4. Withdrawal: After these campaigns, Emperor Tiberius ordered a withdrawal from Germania, effectively abandoning plans for long-term occupation east of the Rhine. 5. Long-term impact: The Battle of Teutoburg Forest actually led to the establishment of a more permanent frontier between the Roman Empire and Germanic territories, rather than resulting in the destruction of Germania. In summary, while the Romans did conduct retaliatory campaigns, they did not "destroy Germany and kill everyone." The actual historical events were far more nuanced, with long-lasting geopolitical consequences rather than total annihilation.

    • @TriariusWarGaming
      @TriariusWarGaming 2 дні тому

      For my stuff, I actually was able to fit the Romans and baggage into two large plastic bins, the Germans into three, and then the mats and terrain in another couple boxes. I put them into the bins roughly organized by how they would appear in the game, and it all fit very easily in the back of an SUV. Surprisingly, transportation was very easy! The key though I think is using large footprint storage bins with a low profile.
