Aventine Miniatures: We have added the packs SASS15-19 which will finish the Eastern or Sughdian unit, there is one pack that are Avars(SASS18) and we will add a second pack to use in an Avar Unit deal. The 18 and 19 packs are multi part archers, we have cast the bow with the hand as a separate piece as this allows the bow to be placed at better and more natural angles. As can be seen in one of the photographs they can be posed as a parthian shot.
In mixed units these will do for a whole range of Eastern warriors of the period e.g. Early Turks, White Huns, Khurasani, Ephthalites and late Saka warriors. They will fit perfectly into a late Sassanian army representing one of the Eastern units raised from what was a vassal state run by Turkish nobles and minor Iranian nobility of dihqans. Many Turks were now also living in eastern Iran and serving as mercenaries.
