Let There Be Bright

Way back, way back in time at Midland Militaire (remember them?) there was a splendid ancient game with a stunning Seleucid army being used. I think they were Garrison Figures, that's it I am having myself one of those. I immediately bought the WRG book out at the time.
For reasons I cannot recall that was as far has I got, queue last year when I started to amass figures for the long gone but not forgotten urge. The figures are mainly from the ever excellent Aventine topped up with figures from Gripping Beast and Foundry. Now I made a promise to myself that I wouldn't start painting any until I had completed the Early Byzantines. Well I had some Aventine Magna Grecia hoplites I bought on a whim some time ago in the lead lump, who doesn't have a desire to paint Greek hoplites. So, come on I am a wargamer after all.
Did the Seleucid's employ Magna Grecia troops? Mine will and if they didn't I have kept my promise to myself not to start painting my Seleucid army😁
The splendid LBMS transfers are on the shields of course.
I won't paint any more figures until the Byzantines are done of course🤞
Until next time............ KBO
