I have been reviewing your Blog. Your basing is very dynamic. Your cohorts visually interesting and impressive. What size are your romans based on? Are you using steel, MDF, or plastic?
Maashes, these are mostly based in 8s on 60 wide, 50 deep bases, which is, as minis have become bigger, becoming my favourite size. Two of the elements are in 4s on 60 wide, 25 deep bases, so that the unit has the capability of forming 3 deep.

I've not had a chance to post regularly, as I've been very busy, preparing for the Partizan game. Here are some of the most recent units, which I'm in process of basing. At the rear is a cohort of auxiliaries formerly of Legatus Hedlius' collection (re-based and expanded to 24). At the front are 2 cohorts of Praetorians from the brush of Nick Speller, which he very kindly rushed to me. I'll post proper pics, as time permits...
I now just have one Ala of cavalry to finish and base, and a bunch of terrain pieces. It is going pretty well!

Romans in tight order are the next best thing to Napoleonics in tight order.
Looks fantastic so far
