Nikephorian Skutatoi

 





Here's another post from the archives, these are Nikephorian Byzantine Skutatoi with rear ranks of supporting archers. These were initially based for Saga, hence the round bases, and are all Gripping Beast figures with LBM shield transfers and banner. I still haven't painted any of the cavalry for this army but have started on some of them and have others based and undercoated ready to go.
