They are also about the most expensive offerings on the market, sad to say, but the line is pretty extensive.<br /><br />Both Irregular and Black Hat have very nice lines, and mix well in the arena. I can personally recommend the female gladiators from Bronze Age Miniatures ( http://www.bronzeagemin.com/ ) which look very good and have been getting a lot of use as all sorts of tough female fighters in our games. West Wind used to have a line of figures for their "Gladiator Wars" rules, and we have some of those; their 'casualties' are very good, and add a nice bit of visual detail to the arena.<br /><br />Spectators and officials, sorry to say, are harder to get but also not as important for games; they look nice, but can get in the way.<br /><br />yours, Chirinechirine ba kalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15089801259918671141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1389986049507804094.post-7286364541551654912011-09-10T00:27:46.873-05:002011-09-10T00:27:46.873-05:00Irregular Miniatures ( irregularminiatures.co.uk )...Irregular Miniatures ( irregularminiatures.co.uk ) make a comprehensive line of gladiators at a good price. Slightly cheaper would be Black Hat Miniatures gladiators, available in the US through Scale Creep ( scalecreep.com ) - including neato dead gladiators and mounted gladiators, presumably for use in gaming the Third Servile War. <br />Gripping Beast also make some in 28mm, but alas, they do not have retiari.<br />Warrior ( www.warrioronline.demon.co.uk )also makes gladiators, but they don't have any pictures... Some of Warrior's new lines look nice, but other ones are very rough. They are the cheapest of the lot, though.Garolek Dolgarukiihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08712838935306398891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1389986049507804094.post-17624284121369436612011-09-09T20:41:23.923-05:002011-09-09T20:41:23.923-05:00Foundry's figures are very nice -but your curr...Foundry's figures are very nice -but your current collection will look like giants when standing next to them.Dangerous Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11494853825931603065noreply@blogger.com
