I'm not really a wargamer, but i noticed this series of products published by Osprey while i was browsing on Amazon.

Anyone have any experience with the system? As it's printed by Osprey, i'm guessing it is of quite a high quality.

I've seen the books around and flipped through them and they are pretty high quality.  I've never played it or given it a serious read through.  From what I glimpsed though it appears to try and go after a realistic battle field approach to combat.  Units move as units you have to do maneuvers etc...  There are rules for how to build your own armies based around points, similar to most Mini-battle games.  But they are definitely going for realism over sensationalism or the fantasy market.

I've got the rulesbook and the first of the two Roman era supplements.  It looks interesting but I haven't had the time to dig into them.

I mostly got them due to Wargames Factory making gloriously cheap 28mm plastic minis for the game (48 Romans for 30 bucks?  Its almost like stealing!) but they delayed their first releases till now, and I would much prefer to do Saladin's army or the army of Vlad Tepes and am thus holding off till someone makes some cheap plastics for them.  And waiting on finding actual opponents because I am sick of having to buy two full armies to play these games.  (I've already done it for Ogre/GEV, AT 43, and Confrontation.  That's quite enough...)

The books are reasonable enough on Amazon that its well worth taking a look though.  All full color, and the main rulesbook is hardback as well.

From what little I have read it has multiple miniatures on a base, a command HQ, possibly some supply rules, and divvies up units into basic types, albeit lots of them.
