Dear All
I hope everyone had a merry Christmas and a Happy new year. For the first time I did not receive any figures or wargaming related presents. Power tools instead never mind.
First post of the new challenge, this is my fourth time in this prestigious event and the first time I will be attempting the actual challenge within the challenge.
So my submission is for the section New acquisition and is a unit of heavy cavalry archers for my Sassanid Persian army in 15mm. The club I am a member off has its own ancient rules written by a member and they recently changed the points system for the armies which means I need more units for all my ancient armies (did drop a hint to family will need larger club next year).
My Sassanid army is all from Lancashire Games but unfortunately they have just retired this range, so these figures are from Museum Miniatures nice clean sculpts with a lot of hidden detail which contrast paints bring them to life. I am tempted to get some more of these especially as they have a sale on.

Points being claimed:
12 x 15mm Cavalry at 4 pts each - 48pts
New Acquisition section submission - 20pts
Total - 68 pts
I really like those vibrant colours, Ian! The Sassanids always speak to the imagination (to mine at least) and these look splendid! You seem to have found a good alternative for your Lancashire Games figures as these Museum Miniatures definitely look the part. Also, it always pleases me to see the trusted 15mm figures getting some love. Good job! That's 68 well-deserved points on the board.
