Lurkio is proud to announce its first expansion to its 15mm Sassanid Persian range.

The Armoured horse archer pack has been revised and split into 2 varieties. A command element is now included. With officer , standard bearer and attendant. The standard itself has been sized to fit with the LBM Sassanid 15mm banner sheet. The archers themselves are now divided into a early and later period (pre and post byzantine influence). Basically the earlier is felt barding and decorated barding, later is the plainer felt barding and the ½ barding horses

A command pack is also available as a single element base.

There is also a auxiliary cavalry pack (Dihqan and Sodgian etc). These are lancer types, in a Turkish style.

The Levy infantry have had some larger shield added to the pack now. (incorporated into existing packs)

Image

The Cataphracts have now had a version with an enclosed mask (incorporated into existing packs)

All of the above are ready to order from the 3rd June. I will be attending Games Expo on Sat 4th Jun (in a playing capacity) and will be able to take an pre orders with me
Image

Not forgetting the Zoroastrian fire temple is now in stock and for sale.

They are LBM transfers. The cloths are molded flat

Thanks

Excellent. Thanks. They are truly beautiful figures. I'm not in the market for elephants right now, but I'll certainly keep them in mind as I've always found 'elephants' to be the 'poor cousin' of the figure manufacture world.

I'm possibly going to 'up' my Ghurids to include some elephants, but that's a few projects down the road :)

Question - are the auxiliary lancers suppose to represent a specific troop type in the current FoG list or are they an insight into a possible revised list? The only armored lancers in the current list are Alans.

More indicative where this figure range is going really. Really with a more rounded view of the middle east

Those elephants look great. I am considering buying them to convert them for my Ancient armies. Among the best elephants I have seen.
