[List I/22a] New kingdom Egyptian (XIXth dynasty)

Once is not customary, this subject does not concern one of my armies but an army project that will see the light in 2017.
 

Taking advantage of the end-of-year promotions, I just ordered from Black Tree design the figurines necessary for the composition of the Egyptian infantry in Big battle version (the promotion did not concern the tanks)

While waiting for the order, I hacked a chariot with rabiot and recup (Egyptian figurines -1 Wargame foundry and 1 Old glory- that accompanied Hittite figurines once purchased on ebay + a bronze age chariot from Wargame foundry reinforced with Newline design quivers and equipped with Hittite horses).

When  playinf them with the 12 elements DBA version; I will be able to align them in a campaign game, different armies historically related: Egyptians, Nubians, Hittites, Mitanéens, Syro-Canaanéens and Midianites.


- 1 Pharoah in chariot (Lch)  General-in-chief
- 2 Princes in chariot (Lch) Sub-generals
- 9 chariots (Lch)
- 9 Naktuu-Aa, spearmen and kepeshmen (3Bd)
- 3 Naktuu-aa, axemen (4Bd)
- 9 Heavy bowmen (4Bw)
- 2 Nubians (Ps)
- 1 Javelinmen (Ps)

The entire infantry will arrive upon receipt of my order. The purchase of the tanks will follow a little later in the year 2017 even if I have already tweaked some with parts of recovery: page devoted to Egyptian chariots.
