Wargames Atlantic: Late Roman Legionaries

Wargames Atlantic veröffentlich spätrömische Legionäre.

A New Set to Kick off A New Range!

Today we kick off a major new range: Decline and Fall with the first set for the range WAALR001 Late Roman Legionaries (1): Lorica Hamata!

This range will roughly cover the period from the crisis of the 3rd century through to the fall of the Western Empire and beyond. Some sets from our Blood Oaths range may be useful here as well. We will start with Romans in lorica hamata (mail) and will soon add Goths, Franks, and Army Builder sets for both the Romans and the Goths.

The Army Builder sets will have 60 figures each at the same price as our other sets ($34.95/£25) and are designed to be used in combination with the main Roman and Goth boxes to provide all the command you need to build many full units using a combination of the boxes.

This first box will let you build later Roman legionaries with command and lots of head and weapon options to cover a wide swath of history. These also make excellent superior warriors for your Goth, Hun, and other Germanic tribes.

Take a closer look here and get yours now!

This is the first of at least five new sets coming out this year for this range.

Wargames Atlantic – Late Roman Legionaries (1): Lorica Hamata – 34,95 GBP

IN HOC SIGNO VINCES

“In this sign, conquer”. The legions underwent significant expansion and changes through Diocletian and Constantine’s reforms but by the late 6th century would become almost unrecognizable. Still, the legionaries fought across the whole of the Roman world against Pict and Irish raiders in Britannia, Vandals in North Africa, Sassanid Persians in Mesopotamia, and the never-ending onslaught of migrating Germanic and Hunnic tribes. More often than not they fought in brutal civil wars to determine who would be Emperor.

This hard plastic set allows you to build up to 24 legionaries with spatha, spear, and plumbata along with two types of standards and full command. This set provides three different helmet options: the Niedebieber, ridge, and Spangenhelm styles along with the fur “Panonnian” cap. There are two types of crest options and extra heads to create command. This set can also be used to create armored warriors for many Dark Age armies including Goths, Burgundians, Saxons, Franks, and the Romano-British among others.

You will also be able to pair this box to provide up to six units-worth of command for our upcoming ARMY BUILDER set WAALR003! And look for more sets in the Decline and Fall range to come.
