Persian Archers
The standard infantry of the Persian Army, armed with bow and short sword
and wearing textile armour.They fought in a Sparabara formation with a
front rank consisting of pavise bearers providing cover for the rear ranks
to use their bows to good effect.. This formation really demostrates the
advantages of using 25mmGS units as you can show just how the sparabara
formation operated.
The figures are on a DBA element base, housing 36 figures at cost of
£2.40 per element.
