The Maghrawanids are coming - posted by John Edmundson, 15 October 2021

The Maghrawanids are coming 😊

Not as catchy as the Persians but then, I don't have any Persians . . .

Second from the left is my first attempt to paint a strawberry roan horse.

I've been getting more adventurous with painting horses. These are all bays, chestnuts (including one flaxen) and duns.

This group includes a Palomino.

    I can use them as Zirids as well as I have a bunch of black African spearmen but I'm not sure I'm that masochistic - downgrading 1/2 the Cv to inferior seems a bridge too far, although, has anyone successfully used Irr Cv(I) as cheap LH hunters?

        John Edmundson Irregular Cv (I) are clumsy. They can get into trouble against light horse but they are a factor up.

          Vincent Cholewa Yes, the clumsiness is a problem, but I wondered if a dozen of them for only 60AP, about 8 wide, expanded to table edge (or with a few Cv(O) or LH in the flank sector) and walking forward, would stand a fighting chance of completely neutralising a LH flank :^)
          Gauls can have lots of them too.
          I've never tried it. I'm just trying to think of a use . . .

          John Edmundson having the first move and enough PIPs to get to the table edge would likely be important. If the LH got around them ...
