For the 'Post Classical Period' DNW wanted 11-31 Commoner Archers. So basically 55 archers in breechclout needed. A search through my plastic stocks found nothing suitable nor anything that I could convert in such numbers.
What I did find was some figures in tunics. So what could I use them for? An opportunity to dive back into my source books.
Reading about the Tarascans (also called Purempecha, Purepacha, Huacanace & Michoaca) showed soldiers with very short tunics but the text says that they were often longer - aha! The bulk of them are archers plus some suit-wearers and otomi mercenaries.
2 x Sh(S) backed up by 2 x Sh(O)
Atlantic Trojans -the kneeling figure is somewhat larger than the rest
Sh(O) - rather two-dimensional figures
2 x Sh(S) @ 5 ap = 10
From 'stock natives' I can add - 5 x Bd(S) @ 5 ap = 25
3 x Sk @ 2 ap = 6
So that's 74 points out of 90 taken care of. I now need to find 3 x Bd(S) Otomi mercenaries.
