Head, D. (1982). Armies of the Macedonian and Punic wars 359 BC to 146 BC. Wargames Research Group.

The definitive source. My painting guide does not replace Head (1982) as I make no attempt to duplicate his illustrations. All I do is list the colours to use. Where I mention “illustrations” I mean illustrations from Head’s book.
