We are very pleased to release our latest ancients range, Three Kingdoms Korean. This epic period of warfare in Korean history touches on the history of other Asian states as well -- the T'ang Chinese, the Kofun Japanese, and the Khitans, among others.
The armies were balanced, usually containing large numbers of mixed spear and bow infantry with smaller armoured cavalry forces and some light cavalry as well. The mightiest state military was the North Korean Goguryeo Kingdom, with the smaller kingdoms to the south, the Silla and Baekche, relying on foreign alliances against the North. (Certainly nothing like today!)
Several of the mounted types are available with a choice of mounts, as will be seen below.
Senior cataphracts in full body armour -- with armoured horses, fancy or plainer horse furniture (please note we use the term "cataphract" because it is so widely used in wargaming parlance, not because the Koreans used it):

Junior cataphracts in lesser armour representing young nobles or similar -- with the same horse choices:

Nice native cavalry figures, your ranges are expanding but not at the expense of quality.

If I did/started ancients/medieval these would be perfect.
Gracias,

I can feel a possible resurrection of my '3 Kingdom's' (Chinese - cavalry/armoured infantry work well, just need dagger ax on infantry) plan working it's way out of the darkness.
