I have put my very large painted Inca Army using Lurkio miniatures on EBay UK. Can be used for FOGR as well as Ancients.
Will also sell worldwide.

I do not think that the pictures do your work credit. I would try to get some better ones and put them on a separate site and have a link.

Bob, thanks for the feedback. Story of my life - no too bad a painter but lousy photographer.

Actually, I have won quite a few games with it. I use tactics similar to those I used when I was runner up at Britcon a few years ago with the Norse Irish.
Basically loads of skirmishers to slow and weaken the enemy. The vast majority of the foot are regular (quite a lot of superior too ) so very manouverable while you have the auxiliary and guard spears as a defence against mounted. The Amazonians are very useful too in that while unarmoured they have swords and generate a fair amount of firepower.
I do wish however they had a few guys with HW.
You also need to remember what Stalin said , "Quantity has a quality of it's own," and this is a massive army led by an inspired commander.
Hope this helps.

I played a game against Martin W's Incas with my Louis XIV. We thought it was going to be a walk-over, but it wasn't. There was terrible dice rolling with the French Cavaliers (I.e. impact 2 hits to his 5 - that sort of thing), but even with that, I think that the Inca would be an army that would be hard to win with, but would not be a walk-over.
You have a LOT of BG's, and can actually put up a good fight with the foot vs foot. The mounted ARE a problem I will admit, but big BG counts mean that you can lose a few and still end up in front points wise by winning the overall battle.
Sorry Muz, was crossposting - thought this was in FoG:R so disregard this for FoG:AM - I have no clues about FoG:AM
