This is my Marian Roman Army. I got these as a Warmaster Ancients army pack of 10mm Chariot figures (from Magister Militum), with a few added extras (the scutarii) and loads left over! They're based on 15mm scale bases for DBA. The cavalry are on 20mm deep bases to allow them to be used for Warmaster; for DBA they are attached to magnetized sabot base extensions to give the correct 30mm depth. Troops per base are as per Phil Barker's suggestions for 10mm figures in DBMM. They had their first outing recently when my son used them to beat my (as yet unphotographed) Gallic/Ancient Brits, and - much like Paul Murgatroyd's 6mm armies - lots of comments from passing members of the games club that smaller figures give a very nice "mass effect" appearance on a 24" DBA board.
