Impetus Persian update

Now then,

I've just finished my latest units for my Impetus Persians. I have the Guard heavy cavalry with Darius himself attached. I've also finished off my scythed chariot.

The army is really starting to take shape now, and I have another 3 units of cavalry nearly finished, and there's more in the post on route to me, along with more Hoplites for my Spartan army seen here - http://stevenkelly1.blogspot.com/2013/02/impetus-spartan-army-wip.html....Some projects are never really finished are they?



Guard Heavy cavalry unit, I have cheated a bit by adding Darius in his chariot, but as the CinC I suppose it works OK. So we have the king of kings with his immediate bodyguard, charging into battle!




The scythed chariot. really great model from Xyston, one of my favourites, unfortunately they aren't actually that great in battle.....

Next up are the Persian national cavalry, and maybe some more Bactrian light horse.
