    Wargames! The Saka military displays its new state of the art heavy infantry in a series of war simulations strategically placed close to the saka - bactrian border to impress the neighbours.

    EDIT: I forgot: the seleucids had threatened sanctions if the Saka go ahead with their plans to mount these guys on armoured horses.

    No, the Sakas would threaten sanctions and raidings if the Seleucid governor refuses to pay them tribute



    I lost more than 1/2 of forces BTW. A complete failure for HA army!

    Are their stand-up collars and steel helmets historical accurate or it's your invention?

    Nobody will try to figure it out if you are made of glass or of metal. They'll treat you the same way.
    When you show your strength, you'll find a company of those who want to steal it from you, but your weakness, you'll be all alone with it.

    it's more historically accurate than seleucid and bactrian units The saka units are re-constructed based on the Orlat battle plaque. Their armour style seems to have been imported from China (warring states, the armour from "Chu" is almost identical) but made of metal rather than leathers.

    Their heavy infantry is very unique too - with two weapons by both hands Keravnos suggests it may be some kind of hoplite, so I'll make a hoplite version later!

    I'm hoping you're not talking about Amon Amarth
