Above are some photos of some Nubians I've finished painting, except for most of the archers and the Nubian chieftain which I painted a while ago. They're a real mix of ranges from Wargames Foundry (the best), Casting Room Miniatures, Warlord Nubians and Kushites, Vendel Kushites, Essex Miniatures and Black Tree Designs (the worst). I used these figures today for a 24 point Nubian Chariots Rampant force against New Kingdom Egyptians, commanded by Craig. The scenario was a Nubian ambush of the Egyptians, and proved to be a lot of fun. See photos below. The Egyptians just managed to fight off the Nubian attack but it was very close.

Well, they all look good to me, apart from Nubian archers I'm not that clear on what Nubian warriors are like, doesn't Newline do them? They seem to do all the other ancients, I'm surprised the Black tree design figures aren't up to scratch all the ones I have are excellent!

Thanks Iain, they were mainly archers with other infantry armed with javelins and clubs. Newline do have a Nubian range. BTD can be a bit variable, their Egyptian chariots are particularly bad…
DeleteAmazing looking units sir!
