Yes, more Roman releases! Hot on the heels of our Unleash Hell! release last month we now have Imperial Roman Auxiliary Cavalry with Spears! Add more manoeuvrability and stopping power to your Roman army with these lovely new models!
Auxiliary Cavalry of this period were organized into three different formations. These were the Ala quingenaria, Ala milliaria, and Cohors equitata. Armed with swords, spears, and javelins, these mobile and hard-hitting troops were able to devastate their barbaric opponents on the battlefield.
A Roman Cavalry Regiment would hit their foes with devastating impact, crushing morale and sending their foes fleeing. They would charge in with their spears before switching to their long cavalry sword, the spatha. The Regiment Boxed Set allows you to add your own units of hard-hitting Imperial Roman horsemen to your Roman Army.
The Auxiliary Cavalry Regiment boxed set contains:
• 1 metal Decurion
• 1 metal standard bearer
• 1 metal musician
• 7 metal Auxiliary horsemen armed with Spears
Historical completists should note that with these models and the current Roman cavalry with swords you can now have cavalry with early pattern helmet and either sword or spear or you can opt to field the later pattern helmet with sword/spear. In fact, why not add both to your army?
We’re also offering a new Command pack for these excellent cavalry (Decurion, Standard Bearer, and Musician with horn) and a three pack of the models included in the boxed set. You’ll find all of these great miniatures waiting for you right now in the Warlord webstore!
