Gripping Beast Bringing Late Roman Heavy Cavalry To Salute

March 23, 2018 by brennon

Gripping Beast are going to bringing a new plastic kit to Salute this year. Here we have the Late Roman Heavy Cavalry, perfect for riding down the flank of your army and crushing the enemies of the Empire!

The set comes with twelve riders and they can be used as Late Romans or Early Byzantine warriors on the tabletop. Here's a peek at the sprues that you'll get in the box...

You get an array of different weapon options as well as a variety of shield sizes to work with as well. Cavalry kits are never as in-depth it as with the regular infantry ones but this should help you create a very comprehensive set of riders for the tabletop.

You can now pre-order this unit from their website and pick up the models at Salute if you wish. With Swordpoint growing as a rules range and SAGA II now on the field it's neat to see more plastic options for people wanting to quickly and easily build warbands.

What do you think of the kit?
