I've just realised I should have started here, instead of posting a thread on focale in the main forum. Sorry!
Hi everyone, I'm Dafydd and I come from Mona, the sacred island of the Druids, or Ynys Mon/Anglesey as it's now called. I've been interested in the Romans for many years now, and I've amassed a reasonable library of books on the subject. Unfortunately for me though, like the great poet Homer (Simpson) once said "Whenever I learn new stuff it pushes some old stuff out of my Brain." So I'm constantly learning new things about the Romans ; or maybe they were old things I'd forgotten...
I have a meagre and unfinished late first century AD Legionary set (sadly with inaccurate pieces which will hopefully be replaced or corrected at one point), although I'd love to create a first century BC/AD Briton impression, or even a late Roman/Romano-Briton of the c. AD 300-500 era. I'm pretty confident that everyone here could put me in the right direction!
