Micro armies: Classical Greek. Miniatures in 2 mm. STL Files.
A set of STL files to reproduce Classical Greek armies (from VI century BCE to IV century BCE). All units have been carefully built based on current historical research on how these units fought and deployed in ancient battlefields. The distances between individual fighters and overall layout of the units are chosen so that a realistic sense of scale can be achieved.
Compatible with DBX systems, Art de la Guerre, Strength & Honour, Age of Hannibal, Impetus, etc.
Please check the included spreadsheet with the information of what's in each reference. The set contains:
- A series of small scenes depicting generals, officers, and staff to be used as markers for command characters.
- Early and late hoplites: With two front rows attacking, with 6 rows (for 40x15 mm bases) or 8 rows (40x40 bases or 80x40 bases).
- Greek cavalry: In square formation at a 2 to 1 ratio, as well as the famed thessalian rhombus
- Peltastes and psiloi: with javelins and bows in different densities to represent looser or more amassed skirmishing infantry. Attacking.
- Special units: The 50 hoplite deep theban phallanx
- Casualty markers, in case you need them in your favourite wargame.
The miniatures come with a rough, 0.4 mm thin base, intended to be glued onto a base of according size. Paint with bright and bold colour schemes.
Notes about printing:
- I print with layers of 0.05 mm, and they come out fine
- Autosupports work well. Take care in ensuring good coverage of the corners of the base
- If printing directly onto the buildplate, I suggest you rescale the sets in the XY directions by 95% (at least). The elephant foot effect will increase base size, and you will have to trim a large part of the base!
- If printing directly onto the buildplate, I suggest you don't overload the printer too much. The more you load it, the thicker the base, and miniatures will come out shorter than they are
