Yes, my personal favourite is also "Arthur and the Anglo-Saxon Wars" by Osprey!

Perhaps the biggest disappointments by McBride are Warrior series "The Roman Legionary 58bc - AD 69" and "Imperial Roman Legionary Ad 161-284" . By the way, there are only 8 colour plates compared to the usual 12 and they seem to be made in a hurry. Also the shapes of the swords are horrible!

Oh yes, and the "Romano-Byzantine Armies 4th to 9th Centiries" is also very weak, both in pictures and text...

I agree that the older McBride is often better, when the limbs of the characters are not out of the Middle-Earth :wink: ...
