Roman Generals Lucius Cornelius Sulla & Gaius Marius (PREORDER)

Gaius Marius and Lucius Cornelius Sulla were both men firmly in the mould of their time

Powerful and shrewd politicians, diplomats, and military commanders, who thought nothing of ruthless conquest to advance both their own and Roman aims. Both held high political office, and fought both overseas against Rome’s enemies, and against each other on Italian soil. The older Marius would hold the position of Consul no fewer than seven times, while Sulla would go on to win victory in the First Mithridatic War, and become the first man to seize dictatorial power in Rome by force, setting a precedent that would lead to centuries of violence.

These miniatures depict both men mounted and armoured for war, leading their men forward into battle. Exactly where that battle is, and against whom, is for you to decide. Full rules for fielding Lucius Cornelius Sulla and Gaius Marius in games of Hail Caesar can be found in the Rome’s Conquest of the East supplement.
