Chariots and Commanders
It's been a while as I had some problems with paint supplies, I use Humbrol acrylic sand 63 as undercoat/primer and I was running out. I found somewhere on the web who could supply them. But after despatch I had an email saying they weren't included in the order as they were out of stock. A rather panicked search around and I decided to try the Vallejo primer instead as it was available. So here are the scythed chariots followed by the commanders.
One of the chariots was obtained as a swap without any horses or crew so I had to sort out something to replace them.
The colours are very odd as the commanders chariot (at the back) should be purple not blue?
Persian light infantry
a more varied selection of troops, six units in total.
In the front Cissian archers, then slingers and then more "persian" archers
Persian Levy
The last pair of units for my Persian Army, These are those bought along to fill up the numbers.
The right hand unit is made up of two different nations, Sakae to the right and Sogdians to the left. The other is a bit of a mis-mash of remaining figures
The Sakae and Sogdians had head swap to increase the variety.
Conclusion
I should say that this completes the army, but I'm sure to find other bits and pieces to add, and I've already decided to rebase my Greeks to match so I can also use them as mercenaries as well as opponents.
