Syrians ready to fight
4 November, 2018
After what seems a long time, I’ve finally got enough figures finished so that I can field the Syrians. All the mounted options are painted, but there are more foot options that I have still to paint. For strict accuracy if I want to be able to field all the options for IV/6 I’d need to get a different command for IV/6c and one more Syrian cavalry (I’m using a Ghulam element instead).
The last four elements were the Bedouin light horse and the Syrian cavalry.
This army has plenty of light horse and cavalry, but it doesn’t have much interesting infantry support. It’ll just have to rely on its good looks!
It’s going to be a bit of a rush getting the Carthaginian veteran spear finished in time for Conquest; however, I have fallback figures, so it’s not the end of the world if I don’t.

Very nice Mark. Another very nice army can be deployed.

Thanks. I’m looking forward to morphing them into other armies.

I can imagine that some of these troops could indeed be used in other armies.

The Ghulams in particular, and the Turkomans and Bedouin. The foot less so.
