Too many Generals?

Well, of course not; though I concede that it is a matter of budget, space and opinion that we can agree to disagree on. Being a typical wargamer though I do so hate seeing surplus figures going to waste, something which seldom happened in the good old days of buying figures individually rather than by the blister or bag! Sorting out my purchases from both Colonel Bill's and from Wargames Foundry's stand at The Other Partizan I found two mounted figures which although they didn't fit easily into unit bases did make a reasonably satisfactory vignette for a command base. I have painted them up now and in my organisation designated them as a sub command base for my expanded Goth/Saxon/Frank contingent ~

They are from Foundry's Commanders and one of the Heavy Cavalry packs respectively. Currently my Goth/Saxon/Frank element only consists of three bases of Heavy Infantry in mail and two bases of Light Infantry skirmishers. There are two more bases of figures in the Lead Pimple, although I need shield transfers before I will start them, and that awaits the reopening of LBMS under the Victrix umbrella. He might have waited until after Christmas to announce the move and not put me and others to such inconvenience, but such is life. Hardly a life changing difficulty after all.

While on the subject of the Late Roman collection though I am progressing the next Legion allocated to the army of Pompus Minimaximus. Two bases are now completed with the third underway as I type this entry. I hope 🤞🏻 they will appear here by the end of the week. That will leave just two more units to paint: twenty unarmoured levy infantry, from Foundry's Arthurian range, and seven more Heavy Cavalry from Foundry again.
