Description

With the most miniatures we’ve ever managed to cram into a single box, the Hannibal Battle Set is the perfect way to dive into the Punic Wars with Hail Caesar Epic Battles! Designed specifically to allow you to easily represent the huge armies of Rome and Carthage on the tabletop, and presenting amazing modelling and painting opportunities, from the iconic massed ranks of the Roman Legions to the mighty and terrifying Carthaginian war elephants, this enormous box nets you complete Roman and Carthaginian armies, alongside a Hail Caesar Epic Battles rulebook, and a copy of the Scipio battlegame, a quick-to-play system that introduces players to the key concepts of Roman military tactics – the perfect primer for the Punic Wars!

The Punic Wars, fought between the great powers of Rome and Carthage, were the greatest series of conflicts of the ancient world. Vast armies fought across the Mediterranean and beyond to decide the fate of empires. Among those who would carve their name into legend was the Carthaginian Hannibal Barca, one of the finest generals of his age, who would cross the Alps to invade the Roman heartlands and come very near to destroying Rome herself. The Romans, meanwhile, would seek to establish and consolidate their domination of the Mediterranean, paving the way for future conquests.

Included together in the Hannibal battle set, and cast in high-quality Warlord Resin, are gorgeous figures representing Hannibal Barca and Scipio Africanus, the leading generals of the conflict, and the natural choice to lead each side to victory! These are different sculpts to the versions found in the Commanders boxed sets!
