To add some ranged firepower to my Legionaries, I've added some Auxiliary Archers to my Caesarian Cohorts with these metal Warlord figures. With their long drooping moustaches I see them as last month's conquered Gauls, now sworn into service and fighting next to their new Masters to beat up on their old tribal enemies!
As missile troops cant form close order (in Infamy Infamy!), I've gone for more widely spaced circle basing rather than the closer packed squares that the Legionaries close up in. I think it adds to their personality. I really like that they come in both standing and kneeling firing positions too.
