So I’m looking at potential classical armies, mainly from a painting perspective, so looking for nice figures.
I’m now thinking late Babylonian...
I like the mixed multi national forces involved, a bit like early Persian but still using chariots.
Figures wise,
I’m wondering if I can kit bash some stuff from plastics?
Lydian hoplites - Victrix heavy Greek hoplites (the ones with the bronze breast plate)
Medes - using mix of Victrix unarmoured Persians, and Wargames Atlantic Persians?
Chaldeans - again using the plastic Persians, maybe some heads from elsewhere?
Warlord do a nice Babylonian Kings chariot.
I’ve got some early Scythian horse archers.
Early Arab camelry with 2 crew, Warlord perhaps? Newline?
The only thing missing is Babylonian cav and Chariots?
Perhaps the old Vendel range could help there?
Thanks for looking.
