If I ever do the Romans, it will be just the testudo formation... but not before I get another property and a million bucks
Being a history buff and a student of almost all things militaria, it has been a challenge (and a deliberate policy) to keep off the romans/greeks, WWI/II, samurais, AWI, Chinese etc. Getting into too many eras would be a first step to financial ruin
So it's just Naps and Crusades.... it already a quite a handful!
Naps can be a black hole if you are a completist and if you are not. Just do an infantry square... Or may be just the cavalry... but you need that officer, that NCO, that bugler, some troopers...
Crusades... seems manageable at the moment... they don't come as thick and fast... no regiments to "complete"... I can pick the odd knight or two I like each time ... a lone knight still look alright on his own as opposed to just one single Naps British Guard (these have to come in a group)... really have to be stringent or else you end up with a whole bunch of Hospitallers, Templars, Teutonics...
Sorry about singing this tune... but S&P and Moody's are already putting me on downgrade watch
