Well as promised here is what I purchased whilst off gallivanting.
So left to right:
A couple of Victrix Roman Legionary sets (one advancing, the other attacking). These will be used against my celtic types. Yes I know, they should probably be late republican, but hey, this was my first reenactment period so I am biased.
Middle top four 1p movement trays that cost me 20p a shot. Some Game Forge spray paint to try out and some mdf casualty markers.
Top right- some Perry metals. The only mounted Hundred Years War command pack that was left (well that I could see anyway). This one has Jean D'Arc, La Hire and the B*stard of Orleans (Jean de Dunois). These really need a good clean up.
An ox cart suitable for the Romans and below that a 6-8mm ruined city block set. I have decided to get out my 6mm road wars stuff and try to get it all finished.
Part of me wishes I had picked up a set of Roman Auxiliaries, but these came in separate cavalry, spear armed and bow armed sets. It would have helped to have had smaller pack sizes. I could have got a Pack of light field artillery too. If I had have got the above then the Romans would have outnumbered the barbarians.
As I mentioned in Saturday's post. I really could have spent a whole lot more money.
Tomorrow my Wife and two eldest head off on their trip. My son and I are going to binge watch as many war films as we can... starting with one of these: 'The Guns of Navarrone', 'The Longest Day', 'The Battle of Britain' or 'Zulu'. Starting with the classics.
