In the premade Essex Army Pack these are the spearmen they use for early Etruscans Hoplites List I/55a. But wouldn’t these be more accurate? Thanks ~Matt

Have you looked at the dedicated Etruscan range from Mirliton?

Essex we have a dedicated Eutruscan range too. That were the third image is of.

It's often the case that Essex choose figures for their ready made armies which are not the best available from their extensive range. It's sometimes better to pick what you want, rather than what they dictate (though the problem comes with all the left over figures from eg 1 x Ps).

I have the Essex DBA Etruscan army somewhere, as mentioned already, perhaps best to check their website for what figures they use before purchase because they aren't always what one might think is the best choice. Also, they are quite short and stout, fine for a tea pot but maybe not to everyone's taste. Perhaps more for the end of the period than the begining are the War & Empire/ Forged in Battle Etruscans and Italians. forgedinbattle.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=126_161_137

My Tullian Romans are Donnington, and I am very pleased with them. When I bought them I wasn't 100% happy with their choice of figures for the DBA army pack. I priced up buying my choices as individual figures against the cost of an army pack, and found the price to be the same. I wish that I had gone to Donnington for my Etruscan League army.
The ability to buy by the individual figure is also useful if there are changes to army lists or indeed if you change the game you play to one needing a few more figures.
