These chaps are either Roman elite light troops (in a four) or Italian allied light troops (in a six), made from a mix of Italian infantry, Velites Hastatii and Triarii




Velites of Legio I & II



Elephants - these are the Carthaginian elephants, with converted Cretan archers and Triarii as crew, plus a few Cretans and Velites escorts, just because they look cool! I tried a little tromp d'oeye on the howdahs, for a laugh.
