I've got a WAB (Warhammer Ancient Battles in the event no one remembers!)  tournament coming up in September and needed to get an army on the table for the event. Rather than (typically!) forking out for new miniatures I made the decision to resurrect my Classical-Nanda/Mauryan army.

More pictures and my usual waffle can be found on my Just Add Water blog here:

Cheers for now.

Very nice, I particularly like the shield designs.

28mm I assume? What manufacturers?

Cheers

Hi Mark, they're sold by Eureka Miniatures UK as they were acquired from The Miniature Company a few years back. The range can be seen here:

Mods/Admin- I hope the link is OK(?). If not, please feel free to remove.

Cheers

Nice - I wasn't aware Eureka did 28mm Classical Indians.
They look nice, with some useful additions such as the Brahmins and Armoured foot command.
Thank you.

They're pretty nice but quite chunky. The ellies and horses for the chariots are massive; I'm using Essex chariots with Eureka Crew.

I used First Corp chariots - but then the rest of the army is also First Corp. But it was their chariots that drove that choice.
