Picts
Awaiting basing Picts!
Still on the old style (at least for me!) square bases, these Picts (Gripping Beast).
Once on their new 1p's it will be easy to use them as Shieldwall or Warrior (for Dux Bellorum) depending on what I want to do.
As they stand they are enough for one shieldwall unit (remove the rear rank) or two warriors.

Characters
I use these figures to represent the Leadership points used in Dux Bellorum.
The chaps on the base are only on it for ease of moving it is not a formation.

Dark Age Cavalry
For now this is all my early Dark Age cavalry which is painted.
The bases need changing to my new style of cavalry base but are serviceable for now. The new style uses four 2p's (more to follow).
These chaps are armoured (for the most part).
I need to get the unarmoured figures I've got painted up to support them.

Religious Stuff
These are work in progress of my two bases for the 'Monks' option in Dux. One is a Pagan scene, with sacrificial sheep and the other a travelling cart with priest for the more Christian themed armies. The Christian bases is the correct size for Dux but the Pagan one is, obviously, far to short and will need some sort of house rule.
The figures are all Irregular Miniatures.
Saxon Warriors
To be honest, these would probably work for any dark age warriors.
The front unit are Noble Warriors, as indicated by the heavier armour they are wearing. The rear two units are straight forward Warriors with only helmets and Shields.
Once again these are based for Dux Bellorum but this time on Warbases irregular shaped bases to reflect the fact that in Dux these guys fight in a much looser formation. The overall frontage is around 16cm so it fits in nicely with the Shieldwall units. These are Gripping Beast figures.

Romano British Infantry
Finally got round to posting my Romano British Infantry
They are based for Dux Bellorum. Well, my version of Dux Bellorum. I've doubled the size of the standard base (as suggested as an option in the rules) and added one so each infantry unit is 16cm wide. This gives the slightly odd number of seven figures wide but allows my cavalry to have six figures across each base.
Each figure is based on a 1p piece and fits into a WarBases base. The figures are, of course, Gripping Beast.
Here you can see two shieldwall units.
