Reinforcing Sutekh and Ptah

First 2 new units now integrated, one each to the Sutekh and Ptah Divisions.

Apart from the extra infantry unit, Sutekh has had it's light infantry archers replaced by slingers, it's component of archers being transferred to Amun. Pre will then get some of the 'new' light archers to replace their lost slingers. I think Sutekh could also do with more archers and their own general.

 Ptah has just had the extra infantry unit added, no other changes.

 Meanwhile another unit of spears in Dettol (some new, others I already had lying around) together with 24 light archers.

Ptah Division - a work in progress.

Mirroring the Egyptians themselves I'm placing my Egyptian army in 4 Divisions. The Amun Division has already been covered. Ptah is actually the 4th Division and I've put it as the 'levy and Nubians' Division. Originally they were supposed to have just a standard chariot unit but that could have meant leaving the Pharaoh a bit light. On that basis, Pharaoh took the 1st Chariot unit, all the others got bumped up a Division and Ptah finished up with nothing. Seemed too good an opportunity to miss - so Kushite Pharaoh/subordinate King plus Kushite chariot unit painted up.

The Division is quite a bit bigger than this - these are just the recently based or painted units. Most of the rest are finished but not quite accessible at the moment - it's a decorating thing.

The newly painted bits are the Kushite subordinate King (well, at least until 745BC) and the Division's chariot force.

 

  

Every Division has a unit of cavalry 'scouts'. In the case of the Ptah Division  they are mounted on Garrison horses.

 

And the main infantry force consists of Nubian/Kushite archers. Being the last unit based, these are the 'poorer' painted/condition figures in the Division. Others include this lot.
