Hail Caesar - New Edition Comingposted in First Empires: From the Rise of Akkadia to the Fall of Alexander
Warlord Games are Working on Hail Caesar Epic Battles: They look like Marian Romans from Julius Caesar's Gallic Wars to me. Lets hope they also will bring Pontic and Late Ptolemaic Egypt Armies.

The Trojan War / Iliad / Odysseyposted in First Empires: From the Rise of Akkadia to the Fall of Alexander
Those "four horse teams" sounds like Chariots in Hethite fashion / influence. Those Arzawa states were mostly long hethite Vassals, very possible that they adapted hethite warfare over time.

I wonder how much the interest at Wargames Atlantic is to make a 12,5mm Ancient Range when WLG come up with HC Epic Battles.

Epic Battles in the Republican Roman / Hellenistic Period would WLG also help to "steal" profit from WGA & Victrix with their antiquity ranges instead of do the same in 28mm.
