[Commercial] Aventine elephants crews- Astride crew added

[Emir of Askaristan]

I'm going to need more elephants after all!!
 

[Voyager]

Those are fantastic models!

[Calimero]

Those are fantastic models!

Indeed!

Sassanians?  Medieval Islam?

[Munindk]

The unarmoured elephants could work as circus elephants too.

Sassanians?  Medieval Islam?

That's what I'm talking about!  I suspect Sassanian crew will be along soon.  Medieval Islamic crew would be awesome.

I have had an idea for these- I plan to mount the howdahs on magnets, matching magnets in the elephants back.  Then I can use the same elephants with ride-on crews for the early successor period.

[Aventine]

Adam is working on the astride crews now along with the Sassanian howdah crews. Should not be long now.

Looking great , Keith , would love to see one at the club.

[Mithridates1]

Looking forward to astride crews Keith - Eudamos needs 2 more elephants for his herd!     Good idea Simon but I suspect too fiddly for me, easier to get another display case!   Another trip to Mr IKEA likely........

Seleucid cavalry also on the shopping list, time line for these Keith?

Once we have all the ellie crews sorted we will do the successor stuff, the exact order will depend on Adam's creative juices and the direction they take. The plan is to cover thureophoroi, Thracians, Thorakitai, and the successor cavalry. Bigger job when it is listed than we thought.

cheers

Thanks Keith, look forward to that.   Any chance of some General figures, Relic have some fine ones and it would be good to have another set!

[Aventine]

Two more packs added today, this time Sassanid crews with separate heads so no globes if you don't want them.

Biological weapons team



Standard crew figures with boring old bows and javelins



Probably a mix of both would suit best IMHO

Work continues on the astride hellenistic crew.

Cheers

Biological weapons- love them! Dr Phil will be wanting some of them. :-)

[delbruck]

 Very tempting. I think I need some of those Sassanians.
