A quick look at the new 20mm Skythian's from Newline Designs at the time of writing there are currently 3 codes foot archers, foot javelinmen and the horse archers on the top row of the picture below. However there are a few more codes coming out shortly and I got a few hasty snaps of the raw metal figures to give people an idea of what they are like.
First is the light cavalry Javelinmen, they use the same horse poses as the Archers. There are 3 varieties of riders and they came with wickershields and bowcase as well as javelins (however I use bristles).
Secondly there are also some medium/heavy Skythian cavalry with an armoured horse and 3 better armoured rider poses. Again shields, weapons and bowcase come with this code. Further variety can be achieved by swapping the horse poses between the heavy and light codes.
Overall a very welcome addition to the 20mm ancient world, especially since Skythians feature in many army lists as mercenaries.
