Early Achaemenid Persian cavalry

Post by chrisrivers »

Does anyone know of any good figs for the Persian cavalry in Immortal Fire? I have the old essex ones that really do not fit the armored bow definition and would like to replace them.

Thanks

Hi Chris, in my opinion best figures for Persians (not only cavalry) are Xyston ones. If you go to the website http://xyston.com you ca check photos. I like in particularly Satrapal Guard.

Yeah, I have seen those. My problem is that they do not appear to have bows on them, unless they are on the unseen side. Thanks for the help.

If you check the following ones:

ANC20069-Persian Colonist Cavalry

ANC20077-Babylonian Colonists

you could use them for Cv with Bw.

Check E.A.P. range in Magister Militum. Beautiful bowcases on their backs can be found.
