Default II/5f Phokian

I bought these in order to use them for midnight madness at Cold Wars. Never happened. Oh well.

My friend Tony Banks is interested in playing light armies so I figured I would build one.

My intention was to paint them up in a cross between Spartan and Hillbilly. I ended up with a band of gypsies with a Spartan flare. Oh well, I like how they turned out.


Let me know what you think. I am off to finish up a 28mm Warhammer/HoTT Goblin army.

Lovely - I got my Phokians back from the painter last week and gave them their debut the same week.

Yours look lovely.

They can be fun, but are not that tough.

I have never been able to get a Spartan to mate with a hillbilly, at least not in captivity

You're not trying hard enough. Arkadia, Mother of Sheep (genuine epithet of the land -- and a good all-purpose exclamation I find), and home of Pan is right next door to Sparta ^,^


Great looking army!
