From: Jez Todd - Biblical Hittite Allies - 25mm Warlord Games (95 Points)

Dear All,

A project I want to complete this challenge is a new Basic Impetus army - Hittites. The part one submission is six bases of the allied troops, slingers, javelin light foot and one light chariot. The figures are all Warlord games. It is the first time I have used these figures, I like the company, who have an excellent website and mail order is very efficient. The figures are well proportioned and seem very historically accurate.

Perhaps as these are really true 25mm it is taking a bit of time to get used to, they are smaller then other figure manufacturers. As I will mainly be playing against my brothers New kingdom Egyptians also from warlord this is not such an issue.

Anyway first shot is of the light chariot. The back shot terrain piece is my brothers. Just a desert mix base and trying out the yellow border on the base - still a bit undecided about this.


Next up two units of javelin men - 8 figures in total.


Finally three bases of skirmish slingers - six figures in total. Sorry picture bit out of focus ...


This should be 15 foot figures plus a chariot (two figures plus two horses and cart - was not sure if this counted as 20 points for chariot).

Part 2 will be the Hittites themselves .......

Cheers Jez

Hoi there Jezz, well that's a very nice load of Ancient goodies you've shared with us today! They are really nice looking figures, but the chariot of course is the créme de la créme for me. Great stuff to roll in the Tuesday of Challenge week 7! 95 points will be added tonight.

  3. Great work Jez - love the chariot. The background terrain piece is brilliant - Scotia Grendel I think (I have a couple of their pieces from years back).
