Warmaster Ancients - Gallic Counter Set

If you like my set of Early Imperial Roman counters for Warmaster Ancients, then you will need some enemies to fight. Last year, I made a counter set for the Dacians, but it needs to be updated. Today I completed a completely new set for EIR enemies--the Gauls. As with my other Warmaster Ancients sets, I've tried to provide enough counters for a typical army, with 1,200 to 1,500 points being the sweet spot. Since I haven't played this army yet, I haven't provided any army lists. Magister Millitum has a pre-made 1000-point 10mm Gallic army (ADW7) at their website.

Printing the Counters
I hope some of you find these counter sets useful.You can print these at office printing places, like Staples, using heavy card stock paper printed at actual size. You can also print on regular paper and then glue the counters to wooden bases. (Check the older posts on how I did this with my Empire army.) Currently, I'm printing the counter sets at Staples using regular paper, spray gluing the back of each sheet with Super77, attaching each sheet to an old comic book backing board, and then cutting out the counters using a sharp Xacto knife with steel ruler. Using the backing boards makes for cheap, sturdy counters.

  1. Great counters!! I'm just starting a new 6mm project with my son using warmaster rules, and these will be perfect for us to learn the basics and have a feel for the game. Thanks for your passion and for sharing your work.

    1. Glad you like them, Piombo, I started playing WM with my son as well, many years ago now. Keep on the look out for more new sets.
