Which way to Parthia?

As it's a nice sunny day, I thought I'd set out the early Imperial Roman army for a parade in the desert heat, ready to march off on campaign against the Parthians or to crush another one of those annoying Jewish revolts. I had a Deep Cut Studios skirmish desert cloth in the terrain box, so used that as the backdrop but it's actually not bad with 2mm units if you ignore the trees, so I'll be looking to get something similar but with grid squares for the actual Strength and Honour games, as this one is only 4' x 4' square. I'm now thinking of starting on the Parthians, with some cataphracts to kick off the army.

  1. They all look great Jim. I think FOB Judea may need some ballista's in each tower for the right effect :)
