| Mostly finished, probably do at least one, possibly two more Kardaka units. Figures have been cast for one of them. |
 |
| View down the line - it's looking to be quite a reasonable army. |
 |
| Right flank cavalry plus a couple of scythed chariots. Horse archers and javelin cavalry are conversions of PEC4, heavy cavalry are simply Greeks painted as Persians. Might do another heavy cavalry unit or two. |

The centre. The general in the chariot is more of a stand in as I don't have a Garrison version of Darius - this one is generally used as Xerxes. The unit behind him is the one I use to represent Cyrus the Younger.I have included some Greek hoplites at the back from my Late Greek army because they are such an important part of many late armies, plus the fantasy Persian elephant I made because I like it! |
 |
| Left flank cavalry - my third light light cavalry and second heavy cavalry line unit. Extreme left wing cavalry are my Scythian conversions plus the Sarmation heavy horse archers - they make good Scythian heavies! |
Superb! Lovely review of a super colourful army, Great stuff!

Thank you.
DeleteThanks for organising the parade - they look like a classice army of yesteryear and are just screaming out to take on those troublesome Greeks.
ReplyDeleteI love doing parades - it's one of the main joys of the hobby. Quite a few of them are Greeks themselves of course.
DeleteSplendid!
