Another eBay purchase recently came in the mail after journeying all the way from Argentina in a surprisingly speedy fashion. This time, a couple of groups of 54mm Imperial Roman infantry arrived to extend the “friendship” of the Empire to all corners of the known world.
Some time ago, I decided I would like to have a small 54mm Roman army. I considered expanding my handful of old Timpo Romans into a usable force, but they are now prohibitively expensive to buy. Fortunately, DSG Britains produces Imperial Roman toy soldiers, including infantry, cavalry, and archers. They also make some “Carthaginians.” However, I am most likely to use the Romans against my Britains Deetail Saracens, as they could be a proxy for various eastern armies.
