Impetvs Persian Cavalry


Three units of Xyston 15mm Miniatures Persian Cavalry in Linen Armour. These figures are great to paint up but a pain in the back side to drill holes through the hands to carry the javelins/spears. I based these figures on 60mm x 40mm instead of the standard Impetvs frontages for 15mm figures which are 80mm x 40mm/60mm

Impetvs Babylonian Colonists


Hi Guys, these are my 15mm Xyston Babylonian Colonists Cavalry based for Dadi/Piombo Impetvs Ancient War Gaming set of rules designed and developed by Lorenzo Sartori.

I fasten the figures on 60mm x 40mm, instead of 80mm x 30mm/40mm, Litko plywood bases giving me 6 units.

You will notice one missing rider, sometimes you will find missing parts in the Xyston packs or even the odd miniature i.e. A pack of Hypaspists had one Cretan bow man with seven Hypaspists and no shields, so funny, oh well not to worry, I did have fun painting these guys up though.
