Khirgiz / Kyrgyz ?

Post by frederic »

Hi,

Just looking at the Osprey "Attila and the Nomad Hordes", I see some nice cavalrymen called "Khirgiz".
Searching throught the web, it seems Khirgiz are some Khazars, but as I don't have Decline & Fall and just "Empires of the Dragon", I'm unable to say if a Khirgiz army is a "Western Turkish and Khazar" one or a "Later Horse Nomad" one ?
On EotD, it is written "After the collapse of their steppe empire to the Kyrgyz, the Uighurs moved westward...".
But there's nothing that state "Later Horse Nomad" list is suitable for a Kyrgyz / Khirgiz army.
Thanks for your comments ;)

Fred

Later Horse Nomad would be suitable.
