Early Imperial Roman Scorpions One












Here's another post from the archives, a battery of Early Imperial Roman Scorpions. These are all Warlord Games models and crew. Three are plastic and one is metal, the model and crew on the right in the photos above.

    What can be better than a bucket of Ammo, I ask you? They look very nice.

    Cheers

    What great models! They look superb. I always thought that Scorpions must have come as a horrible shock to any warband types forming up 'safely' out of conventional bow shot and meeting these machines for the first time!
    Best wishes,
    Jason

      Thanks Jason, absolutely they would have been a shock for tribes not used to them but the Dacians ended up with a few of their own that they captured!
