Below are pictures of my current project which is an Early Imperial Roman Army in 28mm. The figures are from +Foundry Miniatures in the U.K.  The opponent which is a Sarmation/Dacian army will be comprised by a combination of Foundry figures and +Old Glory 25s. Both armies were designed using the Field of Glory point system and in keeping with my philosophy concerning large armies both armies are 2,400 point armies. This was driven by wanting ten cohorts for my roman legion and having twelve stands per cohort. The points added up quickly but I decided that was a must and everything else would be based around that. Originally, the Dacians were the dominant partner with the Sarmations providing a couple of battle groups of Cataphracts. But I noticed that the FOG starter army for the Principate Army had the legionaries representing 49% of the point total for their version of the legion and my army had 70% of the army made up of legionaries! This had to be addressed. But instead of watering down my army I decided to strengthen the opposition army by increasing the Sarmation contribution to ten battle groups. The Dacians are all mediums in terms of infantry and they would not stand up well against the cohorts on their own. So now with the Sarmations making up roughly half the barbarian army now the battle should be more balanced. I'll post pictures of the completed first cohort soon and start with a unit of the barbarian army to mix it up a bit.
