11 elephants vs how many legions? It will be great to have another 25mm game at the SOA Battle Day, they should look pretty spectacular!

Ecellent idea this comparison ! Empire Models elephants are really big, aren't they ?

Adam, 4 legions with 112 figures each is the plan...

Timur, they are huge! Biggest I've seen. I want some smaller Indian nellies that I can use alongside them, and then I'll think of them as the big bulls.

A&A carthaginian (and Sasssanid) look really good too. But i think they are smaller too...
Well, good luck on the tabletop !

Hi Simon, just got back from holiday and saw your latest elephant posts - great stuff, especially the comments about size comparisons and conversions. I seem to remember that in a previous posting you made a comment about elephant casualty figures. That got me thinking. I have a couple of Essex Indian elephants, and I think they needed heavy assembly work (it was a very long time ago). They had two-part heads and two-part bodies, plus separate tusks and tails. If I shamelessly copy your idea of casualties, I would only need to buy another two and use each half to produce enough casualties for Zama. Would any of the other figures you have come across work like this?

Keep up the good work!

Hi Paul, possibly the Renegade ones could be converted. I also wonder how hard it would be to sclupt one from scratch in greentstuff, and cast up.
