New Skythian Cavalry


Some painted examples of the new Skythians from Newline Designs 20mm ancients range. Here we have the heavy and light horse warriors. With Skythians or Saka appearing in quite a few army lists throughout the classical era, they are a very useful addition. 

I've been continuing on with the rebasing which has been flowing well. Still have to update the blog with recent units that have been completed and quite a few rebases need some photographs taken. I would like to set up Lost Battles up again and play through Cannae, as well as getting a few more games of Strength & Honour in. For Strength & Honour I'm looking at playing larger battles, but to do this I'll have to revert to 1 base = 1unit, inevitably the smaller grid size means skirmishers need a work around. I decided to mount a few figures individually as skirmisher markers , I've made a start with that while rebasing. 

Next up will be Velites, I'm not sure when as keeping the blog updated is still proving difficult.
