114 Auxiliary's foot and archers 570
8 cavalry 80
14 praetorians 70
8 command 40
2 wounded 10
2 war machines 4 crew 40 points

I should top out somewhere here, however as I am afflicted by the Wargames squirrel,  I have also added some back up stuff

Ww2 British (back up plan 1) just because they are ready for paint.....
2x Cromwell regiment 14 tanks 210 points
Armoured car regiment 9 vehicles 135 points
Total 345



Austrians (back up plan 2!) Ok need to be assembled, I have good intentions.......)
Austrian Generals

6 mounted officers 60
60 cavalry 600
2 guns and 8 crew 60
Total 1720. 


French Napoleonic
I have French Imperial Guard cavalry and two battalions of 1805 infantry 

Terrain
I really want to keep up my terrain tuesdays so I have also added in two chateaux to be built and a few other medieval pieces.

So even with some squirrel switching between periods I should keep up the interest and it not become a chore. 

Cleaning brushes nd clearing the decks for Tuesdays commencement!

cheers
