Title: Preparing for Philippi
Post by: Paul Innes on October 09, 2016, 12:20:22 PM
I am really looking forward to this weekend coming, and have been busy working away on the final preparations. Just finished the last of the figures. Celtiberian mounted loonies for the cavalry clashes:

Hope you like 'em. Next up is an unfeasibly large heap of scenery and terrain...

Paul -

The figures look terrific! Given the size of the armies, I do  wonder how you will model  the fortifications present at the battle. I also wonder what you will do to represent the marshy ground where Antony did his secret work.

Here's hoping that some visual record is posted to the forum when time permits. Here's hoping that an article or  articles of the conference will appear in a future  issue of the journal.

Any  update re  a podcast or video of the proceedings?

Thanks,
Chris

Hi Chris, I'm intending to write it up as an article for Slingshot. Partly this whole idea was inspired by your good self!

I don't know any more about a video or podcast, though...
