No worries. Good figures deserve to be seen. My PP Bedouin have seen a lot of tabletop use, usually on the wrong end of Egyptian or Sumerian spears, but they fill a vital role in the games I set up.

Building the Bedouin army and reviewing the PP figures for Slingshot triggered off my whole Middle Kingdom Egyptian and project, and now includes Bedouin, two Egyptian armies (for civil wars), Hyksos, Nubian and Libyan.

Looking forward to hearing how the SOA Battle Day goes. Wish I could be there.

Have just submitted a figure review to the Society of Ancient's journal Slingshot for the Dark Ages Carolingians. Should be in the next issue.

Very nice figures and worthy of tabletop outings. When my gaming group started talking of games for the "Crusades", I interpreted this as Charlemagne against the pagan Saxons, not the later Holy Land stuff. Originality of thought rather than understanding the obvious?

Finally the Lachish after-battle scenes get sculpted. Put the impaled sculpt down on the tabletop as your "camp" base and let your opponent know how this game is going to play out.....

I notice that figure codes 43 to 48 (inclusive) are missing from the AWI figure listings, yet are listed in the army sets.  Any reason for their absence?

As someone whose armies for this period continue to grow I wonder if I am missing out on something special here?
