Product details

Background & context

The Samnites were a tribal confederation of Oscan peoples who inhabited Central and Southern Italy. In the three Samnite Wars (343-290 BC), they fought tenaciously against the expanding Roman Republic and gained a considerable military reputation. Their warriors preferred to fight in loose formation with javelins and swords, especially in hilly or wooded terrain, where they could fully exploit their mobility. As feared mercenaries and allies, they also served in Carthaginian armies. Their armored warriors represented the elite of the Samnite forces and were closely related to neighboring Italic peoples such as the Lucani, Bruttii, and Campani.

On the tabletop

The 24 armoured Samnites fight as mobile infantry against the Roman Republic or as allies and mercenaries in a Carthaginian army. They advance in loose order, throw their javelins and then seek close combat with the sword, preferably in hills and woods. So you place them on flanks with broken ground, where a closed formation struggles. Standards and horns turn single figures into leaders, and the set can also represent Lucanians, Bruttians or Campanians.
