OP/SB: Skeletal Romans

Fleshless bones held together by arcane energies encased in the remnants of ancient armour, these loyal soldiers of the Empire still march and fight on their centurion’s command. Like all skeletons, these creatures are difficult to destroy with firearms, as the balls tend to pass straight through, or clip off bones without causing significant damage. They must either be smashed apart by hand or their arcane energies dissipated by enchanted weapons.

The might of Rome came not from superior weapons or armour, but from organisation. The Roman centurions ensured that the legionaries under their command held their formations in battle. Nearly two thousand years later, these fleshless warriors still lead their troops into battle. Stronger and tougher than a normal Roman legionary skeleton, these leaders act as arcane energy nodes, fuelling their troops to greater feats. If one of these creatures appears on the battlefield, it is best to deal with them first, for their demise will weaken all the others.

Five 28mm sized metal figures, supplied unpainted. Includes separate shields that need gluing into place.
