From RossM: 28mm Numidians (30 points)

These have been lurking at the edges of the painting table for some time now so decided to finish them off during this challenge. 

Yes, all the pictures were taken at the same time in the same light and yet the one above would appear to be on a grey base sheet rather than white, who knew. 

All of the light cavalry figures here are from Gripping Beast's Punic Wars range and are very versatile as they can be used in both sides and several others of the period including the Caesarian Romans. 

Might get a few more of these in the future although annoyingly they come in packs of three, meaning will need two packs for three stands. 

Think it is about time to go back to using the camera rather than the phone as these pics are washed out and fuzzy at time. 

The skirmishers are also from Gripping Beast and could do with some support from javelin armed troops in ADLG. 

Both the cavalry and infantry are based on 60mm fronts although the cavalry are on 80mm deep bases. Prefer the deeper bases as this allows more staggering of the horses giving more movement. Also allows more figures to be on a base to differentiate between light, medium and heavy cavalry more easily. 

The 60mm fronts will also enable these to be used in other systems such as Hail Caesar and DBA.

So where does this take the points total? Well as all of these had been started before this challenge they are not really point worthy, however, this is for fun so will allocate points based on the following:

4 x 28mm cavalry: 40 points halved to 20 points

4 x 28mm infantry: 20 points halved to 10 points

For a total of 30 points to add to the running total of 165 points out of 500 or 33% of the challenge total. 

Hope that you found this interesting. 

Stay safe and cheers for now.
