{"product_id":"thessalian-light-cavalry-regiment","title":"Thessalian light cavalry regiment","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Thessalians were renowned as the best cavalry in Ancient Greece. The region of Thessaly differed from the rest of the mountainous Greek mainland, with its geography instead featuring flat, fertile lowlands which were particularly suited for large-scale horse breeding. Thessalian mounts were renowned throughout the Greek world for their superior strength, speed, and endurance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe noble families of Thessaly developed a political and military culture around horsemanship, and Thessalian cavalry was much in demand by the Greek city-states to fight both external foes such as the Persian Empire, and also each other during conflicts such as the Peloponnesian War.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe miniatures in this boxed set represent light cavalry or prodromoi (those who run ahead), enough to field two small units of 6 models each in games of Hail Caesar. Clad in their distinctive petasos hats and swirling chlamys capes, these elite light cavalrymen excel in such battlefield roles as scouting and light skirmishing around the enemy’s vulnerable flanks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eContents:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12 Warlord Resin 28mm Thessalian light cavalry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass spears\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlastic bases\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMiniatures sculpted by The Warlord Games Design Team.
