Late Roman Legionaries (2): Lorica Hamata

IN HOC SIGNO VINCES

“In this sign, conquer”. The legions underwent significant expansion and changes through Diocletian and Constantine’s reforms but by the late 6th century would become almost unrecognisable. Still, the legionaries fought across the whole of the Roman world against Pict and Irish raiders in Britannia, Vandals in North Africa, Sassanid Persians in Mesopotamia, and the never-ending onslaught of migrating Germanic and Hunnic tribes. More often than not they fought in brutal civil wars to determine who would be Emperor.

This hard plastic set allows you to build up to 24 legionaries with spatha, spear, and plumbata, along with two types of standards and full command equipped in scale armour. This set provides three different helmet options: the Niedebieber, ridge, and Spangenhelm styles, along with the iconic Late Roman ridge helmet. There are two types of crest options and extra heads to create command.

This set can also be used to create armoured warriors for many Dark Age armies, including Goths, Burgundians, Saxons, Franks, and the Romano-British, among others. The entire Decline and Fall range is designed to mix and match from the various sets to create a huge variety of styles. Pair this box with WAALR001 LATE ROMAN LEGIONARIES (1): LORICA HAMATA for a mixed look in your legions. Use WAALR004 DARK AGES ARMY BUILDER for unarmored Romans. Many more sets are in the works for this range.
