Kushites Ambush the Imperial Romans in Hail Caesar
May 21, 2012 by brennon
Some more Kushite Warriors are now available from Warlord Games. We saw the Spearmen for this army not long ago but now they are bringing some missile troops to bear along with their King!
They were considered some of the most beautiful people in the Ancient world by renowned scholars and trained to be deadly in the art of war. The bows they carried were six foot long and fired arrows that were flightless. A tribe of Kushites on your side would give you a good chance against the Imperial might of Rome or a stalwart Greek Phalanx.
Will you be adding Kushites to your ancient armies?

Very interesting for fantasy gaming as well … could be a light infantry in an Araby army for WHFB.
I would say that king and chieftains have best amount of detail from those. Then again they are supposed to look better than they troops. How ever those archers are rather well detailed as well.
Combine the archers and spearmen and you have the basis of at least a well-rounded (melee AND missile) allied contingent for an ancient or fantasy force if not a full army. The Kushite command models look suitably grand and I do like the extra character taking a little calf to battle brings. 😉
Something about the Kushite archers and the other Kushites that I really like. I think its the wild look of their nature that I like.
Very neat moddels, I will definitly consider buying them
