Yermak and the Conquest of Siberia
« on: August 09, 2018, 02:49:24 AM »
This period would be interesting to have a range.Russians,Cossacks,all the different tribes of Siberia.It was from 1580 until really into the 20th century.It was some of the most brutal campaigns against native peoples by anybody.

MY Miniatures does a line for the Conquest of Siberia.
That would be the place to start.

My friend, the portrait of Yermak, represented by you, is not true. He did not wear Western-style clothes and armor. More is the reality of this monument. And yet, the indigenous population of Yermak did not destroy, it's a lie. Khan Kuchum with whom he fought, Yermak was from the same alien conquerors, who are not the indigenous inhabitants of Siberia.

But the warriors of Kuchum Khan are in principle the descendants of Genghis Khan and they can be made from miniatures depicting the soldiers of the same Golden Horde.

Really interesting period that we here in the west don't here much about.MY Miniatures has a nice range in 15mm. I figured you could use Mongol/Tartar type figures.Thanks for the info.

Yes, the bulk of Kuchum's troops are infantry and the Tatar-Mongolian cavalry. Local princes could be like allies. But I do not know such 28mm miniatures.

I read your post wrong.I don't know of anybody that does them either.I would think that some Russian manufacturer would do some but I really don't know of many in Russia that do 28mm.
