Assyrians

Dated: June 18, 2008.
Hello,
Over the last weeks I painted up some of your excellent Assyrians. They will be an army for "Fields of Glory" one day, for which they are based. Until then, here are a few pics of the troops that make up the army. I hope you like them.
Best wishes,
Mr. Butterweck
Germany
Kisir Sharuti Infantry

Guard Infantry

Cavalry

Allied Infantry

Allied Infantry Archers

Guard Archers

Armoured Slingers (were sometimes deployed together with archers. The archers fired in a low trajectory, while the slingers fired high. Like this, the enemy couldn't find shelter from the projectiles.)

Chariots

The King in his charriot (Holding up arrows in your right hand, was a popular sign of victory amongst the Assyrians.)

Many thanks to Mr. Butterweck.
