Lion Rampant for Ancients


I had these Ancient Germans painted up for a while, but as usual, they sat in a box and were never expanded upon. They have found new life in an ancients adaptation of Lion Rampant; Crepusculum Imperii. After I ran across these rules I quickly rebased the Germans and added a few cavalry (more coming) to round out my force. 

Lion Rampant, and all of its off-shoots, has been really popular with my current gaming group, which has given me a chance to actually play with my minis!! It’s really nice to not only paint my minis, but to also see them on a gaming table. 

I have some Sarmaritans in the wings (still debating on whether to base them for Impetus) and some ideas on adding other forces - but we will see what the magpie in me has to say about that. 

The pictures are awful, but I only have my camera phone to with for at the moment. All of the foot are from Warlord Games, while the mounted are from Old Glory. I did use one of the riders from the Warlord Games range, but I found that their horse's legs were too spindly and subject to bending, so I opted to use the horses and riders from OG.
