Hello, Cheng ...

Please remember this is Playmobil ... ;)

So ... We can change history if we want ... :)

However, here's a picture of Pompey's Praetorian Guard and a picture of Caesar's Legion.

And, click HERE for a brief account of this civil war.

All the best,
Richard

I plan on pitting my legionnaires against some Vikings and Barbarians that I’ve recently acquired.  I also plan to have some civil wars between my legionnaires and my Praetorian Guards, which are simply the blue Roman warrior figures.  They work well for this purpose, as the Praetorian Guards often had blue shields with scorpions.  I may, however, have to do some modifications to them by replacing their gold helmets with silver ones and replacing their regular spears with pilums.  Their swords are also on the wrong side, but I suppose I can live with this.

I left my love a letter in the hollar of a tree.
I told her she would find me in the U.S. Cavalry.

Flash, that's a great find!  I can't wait to add some of the Gauls to my collection.  I'll also be getting the Roman patrician family and the green chariot.  Hopefully there will be a green accoutered Roman officer to go with it!
