Polybian Romans v Carthage - from Mike Stonyer, 30 June 2026

@ The Hutt Club on Saturday, Rome v Carthage 

Michael Stonyer was playing Napoleonics on Saturday and very kindly took time away from his game to take these great pics of the DBMM game, Barry Norris (Carthaginian) vs Paul Graham (Polybian Romans). The Senate and the People of Rome were victorious. See the captions for more information.

The general going at it bald headed, I see.

It was all to much for Wilf, or not enough

Alpha and Omega - the beginning and the end

Always impressed by the quality of the armies and the photos.
