Yesterday I finished my first 15mm DBA Army: Seleucids II-19a. This army has everything I ever wanted to try: pikes, elephants and scythed chariots. All Xyston Minis except the Corvus Belli Elephants.
The army on the road to glory. The elephants are obviously not of indian origin and you might argue about towers on elephants in a seleucid army of this early period as well as the sarissa-armed crew. I love history but I'm not so rigid when it comes to details such as equipement. The ancient sources are so sparse that we will never know what's right or wrong. In the end I do what ever I like, as long as it seems plausible and as long as it looks good.
