MiniArt – 72014 – Roman Cavalry

Description:

Roman Cavalry

Box contains 20 mounted figures in 5 poses, the common format of the brand for mounted sets. Horses come in 4 poses, all in a 4 equal sprue format.

These late roman cavalry is clearly inspired by Phartian Cataphracts, who after centuries of fought the Roman empire also served on it as mercenaries cavalry, and in the end, inspired the Heavy Cavalry in Europe, a prelude of the medieval heavy cavalry.

The set offers a mix of cavalry types, including archers, certainly more poses like the men charging with his large lance (nicely done) and entirely covered on armor would have been need here, but the brand preferred to offer the second heavy armored cavalry man waving a sword, which is correct, but this split between light and heavy cavalry, with just 5 poses, provoque to be a short set for any of them.
