More Numidian cavalry, this time by A&A Miniatures. These are quite large and some of them have bits of armour. I've had my eye on them for a while as possible auxiliary cavalry for the Romans, especially when it gets to the period of Caesar's civil wars. However, I could also do with some superior quality light horse, as distinct from ordinary Numidians, so I took the plunge and ordered 36 of them. I'll make these ones into open formation cavalry, and probably by another 36 at one point for use by Juba and his dastardly Roman allies. The open order guys will also do for Tychaeus' excellent horse at Zama.
