Wanted: Minifigs or Hinchcliffe cataphract horses - asked by Paul Graham, 3 May 2022

A very Parthian request - does anyone have 8 spare Minifigs or Hinchliffe cataphract horses? I can exchange for gold or some of my own spares (Hinchliffe pikes, Macedonian/Greek cavalry, 2 right halves of an elephant with crew and tower).

  It could be a long and interesting story, but not - they arrived that way many years ago, I didn't look closely at the contents of my order of figures until some time later. The other elephant was fine!

  Sounds like the original order was packed late on a Friday afternoon once the pub lunch was finished and just before the 5.05 to Dunghill upon Tyne.

  Eight cataphract horses making a strategic railway move to Wellington. See you at lunch time.

    Vincent Cholewa I think the first march move is free. Does a railway count as paved Rd?

  Thank you gentlemen, especially Vince (blessed be the Poles), for your contributions to the Parthian cause. The empire is grateful.

    Paul Graham you’re welcome. When the Parthian upgrade is complete it will be a pleasure to have a crack with the Syrian legion, Legio III Gallica. There is a story behind that name. Long story short, it was the third legion Caesar raised for the Gallic wars. After Caesar was assassinated, it became one of Mark Antony’s legions, based with him in the Middle East.
