Connolly\'s Greece and Rome at war new edition! - Gaius Julius Caesar - 01-18-2007 Well, I have just ordered the new version of this book from Military & Aviation Bookclub! I hope there are enough new items in it to make the expense worthwhile? The one I have is great! 8) Re: Connolly\'s Greece and Rome at war new edition! - Virilis - 01-18-2007 Byron, do you happen know if there is any new material compared to my -98 edition? Re: Connolly\'s Greece and Rome at war new edition! - Gaius Julius Caesar - 01-18-2007 Well, according to the write up it has new material! Mine is the '98 edition too! Could have sworn I bought it a lot longer ago than that! But anyway, I am hoping it will have new items of interest! The 98 is great! Re: Connolly\'s Greece and Rome at war new edition! - Virilis - 01-18-2007 Yes, it is great! It is a beautiful book just for the illustrations only. I wish there were more books like that of ancient history in general. Can you please make a short "review" when you have the book? Re: Connolly\'s Greece and Rome at war new edition! - Dan Diffendale - 01-18-2007 This was discussed a while back in this thread. A summary: Quote:"It's a lot cheaper!" And despite all the apparent Samnite changes, I've yet to lay my hands on one of these babies... Re: Connolly\'s Greece and Rome at war new edition! - Et tu brute - 01-18-2007 I've got the 06 edition (got it for my birthday) and it's excellent but undortunatley I can't compair it with other editions as this is the first version i've owned. Re: Connolly\'s Greece and Rome at war new edition! - Comerus Gallus - 01-25-2007 By chance, I hope that it include an illustration that I'm looking for of Mr Connolly, if by chance does have it can one of post it? Its a battle scene of early greeks, there is one greek warrior at front almost knealing,he is fully equiped with armguard, bell cuirass & groin protection plate leg protection, greaves & Achilles heel & foot plate guards, I think his helmet include ear reposse........... Thanks. Re: Connolly\'s Greece and Rome at war new edition! - Et tu brute - 01-25-2007 I've had a look and there is one that seems to match the description on pg 22. It seems to be greek hoplites fighting Persian Immortals?

I'm afraid that I know wich plate you are refering, but nope The warrior will be similar to this guy & the same armguard, but diferent helmet & with bell cuirass instead of musculata............ ![]() ================================================= Ist not thisone Thermopylae scene, but earlier,with the same quality! ![]() Re: Connolly\'s Greece and Rome at war new edition! - Et tu brute - 01-25-2007 I've had a good look through the book but I can't seem to find anything ![]() Re: Connolly\'s Greece and Rome at war new edition! - Comerus Gallus - 02-27-2007 Quote:I've had a good look through the book but I can't seem to find anything Dont worry my young friend, I will show u part of the Plate... its only that I dont have it on good quality, but its suposed to look as good as the one of Thermopylae above. ![]() |
