This army started life in 1986 as a chariot miniatures army. In more recent years I have been replacing the troops with Essex mins. Most of the chariots have been replaced, but I haven't done many infantry yet. I don't actually get to use this army very often.

2 Assyrian heavy chariots, 3 horse and 4 horse versions. 3 horse is essex, I think the 4 horse is one of the original chariot miniatures repainted? |

Assyrian Asharittu infantry. Chariot miniatures figures painted by professionals in 1986. |
One of my biggest problems is deciding how to base my Assyrian infantry as rules sets keep representing them differently! |
