II/31j Hellenistic Greek Aitolians. I've been wanting to see for myself Museum Minatures' new Zed-Range figures. I've heard such good things about them, but I worry about scale-creep. So, I ordered this featherweight army. Two LH elements and ten Psiloi. With an army like that Paul perhaps you'll make a guest appearance in an Aguilar Psiloi Psilliness production 😉. That would be fun. Successes with such armies are rare but memorable. I rode II/7d Early Libyans (11 x 2Ps) into the finals of 2007 Alberta Open at "Fall-Con" and almost won the tourney. Alas, this 6-1 split tells the story. Marians won.

Just purchased a dice tower as I am fed up with my dice bouncing off the table and onto the floor. I did try to make one but it looked clunky with too longer drop so still the dice bounced out.
Also awaiting delivery of a Norman army and saxon army from Irregular Miniatures. Both 2mm scale.
Looking at buying 15mm English and French 100 years war armies.

Just placed an order with Legio Heroica for medieval figures which are nearly all cavalry; Lithuanian and Hungarian.
Milliput for the fur caps and shields from Essex will give them a proper eastern look.

Just made use of the 15% Lurkio discount offer to purchase II/41a&b Western/Eastern Han and II/63 Three Kingdoms and Western Ts'in armies, with most of the options to be covered. Not sure when I'll get to paint them though - maybe this time next year!!

Placed a large order through Lanchashire Games for the following:
AB51 - Infantry with Spears x 3 packs AB28 - Auxilliary Archer x 2 packs AB27 - Auxilliary Spearman x 1 pack MP24 - Persian Slingers x 1 pack MP26 - Babylonian Levy Archer x 2 packs MP27 - Persian Unarmoured Cavalry x 3 packs MP30 - Arachosian Light Cavalry x 3 packs AB45 - Canaanite Spear/Kepesh Armed Foot x 1 pack
I really like many of their Achaemenid Persian line, very good sculpts and different from other Persian figures that I commonly see.
On a side note, I noticed that they have a painting service, and decided to look at the pictures, and noticed some by paulisper! I think they are his pre-Islamic Arabs that I was looking at.
Pretty cool!

Paul, I see that you are following Tony Aguilar's dictum, "Its got to be Litko!" 😏 Cheers,
