Small list detail of note. The later Samurai list (Late Heian?) requires 24 bases of Bushi and Followers and allows additional detached Bushi and detached Followers as optional troops, requiring one BG of Followers for each BG of Bushi . Currently, the detached troops do not interact with the minim...

If anyone could post links to pictures of minis, particularly of 1st Corps cavalry, especially Sword/Sagaris Median Cavalry (though pictures of any EAP minis would help), I would be really thankful. It is sometimes difficult to find a photo to make sure that what one found is what one is looking for...

pezhetairoi,

Something like this is exactly what I needed, someone who knows what the minis are like and can recommend what from where

Thank you very much!

Greetings Quintus, and thanks for your reply. I have considered 1/72 plastics, yes. The one thing that stops me from buying them is the, shall we call it "accuracy" of the Persian heavy cavalry, at least where FoG is concerned. The EAP FoG list says that EAP guard and heavy cavalry are arm...

Greetings, I am about begin an 800-point EAP 28mm army (which can be seen here ). Since there are no local purveyors of miniatures, though, I will have to import them from overseas (I live in Guatemala, Latin America). Also, my background is 28mm fantasy/sci-fi and 15mm WWII, so I do not know much a...

Thank you all for all your comments. It has been a learning experience indeed. I need to acquire a historicals-ancients midnset, and your comments are making it easier. So, here is attempt three. The main differences are no camels, all Saka as LH, minimum sparabara (12), exchanged one Cv BG for an I...

Thank you all for your replies! I have learned a LOT from all of them. I have adjusted the army list, and it is copied below. The main changes are changing the order of deployment (new thing for me, and I had paid no attention to it until RBS mentioned it), downgrading the guard cavalry to superior ...

Greetings, As my first army in FoG I chose the EAP. One self-imposed constraint, at least for the time being, is that it has to be led by Cyrus (meaning date no later than 529 bC, and an IC commander). Here is what I have come up with, but I would appreciate all the help you can give me: Commander I...

Nevermind, found it.

I guess I still have to get used to the armybooks. In 479 an AEP army can have 8-16 Medizing Greek Hoplites. It is in the last section of the army list.

Thanks anyway.

Greets all, New historical ancients player, migrating from fantasy/SF here... meaning... n00b :) The EAP starter army contains 2-6 base BGs of Boiotian hoplites. But in the optional troops section, I only find 0-6 Lydian or Asiatic Hoplites (which seem to be the only ones to fit the bill). Since onl...
