Hail Caesar continues to provide a set of massed-battle wargaming rules designed to allow you to play out some of the biggest battles from the Ancient period through to the clashes between England and France during the Medieval era and beyond. It's a solid set of rules that a lot of folks have been using for many, many years.

Rick Priestley has updated the Hail Caesar rules with additional features such as rules for playing out sieges. The timeline has also been extended to include the likes of the Hundred Years' War and the War Of The Roses. I think the core of the Hail Caesar experience seems (to me at least) to be around the Ancient period and making mighty armies of Romans, Greeks and more.

As well as getting your hands on the Hail Caesar Rulebook, pre-orders of both the standard and collector's edition also get you a 28mm resin miniature representing King Richard I, The Lionheart. He comes with different head options and a deadly battle axe.

If a new rulebook has piqued your interest, what about diving straight in with a couple of starter set options? The first of these is Caesar's Gallic Wars where Romans are clashing with the barbarians at the fringes of their empire.

Inside, the set contains a Gamer's Edition of the new Rulebook alongside an introductory guide that introduces you to the Gallic Wars period. You then get eighty plastic Gallic Celtic Infantry going up against fourty-eight Caesarian Roman Infantry. The set also comes with a set of Shield Decals for both sides, twelve dice, a reference sheet and some casualty counters.

If you're more tempted by just the Gallic side of things then you might want to pick up this Celt Starter Army.

This set comes with a Celtic Chieftain and twelve Celt Cavalry both in Warlord Resin. You then get 100 (yes, 100) Celt Warriors alongside the appropriate Command Figures. All of those regular troops come in plastic. Again, you get loads of Shield Decals to decorate all of those shields they have at the ready to deflect incoming pilum.

Could you be tempted by the new rulebook for your existing force or will you be snapping up an army as well?
