Royal Armies of the Hyborian Age specify a Black Snake on green as the Stygian badge, so I opted for a turquoise green like faience . The orange trim will tie them in with some Set worshipers based on the followers of Thulsa Doom in the Conan film.

STYGIAN SPEARMEN
I'm not sure if Stygian infantry are described in detail in any of the Conan stories (Black Sphinx of Nebthu mentions cavalry, camelry and archers, but no descriptions of them), so here is an offering of Garrison Stygians . I think they should look a bit more Egyptian, but the helmets are rather fun, and round shields make a change.

Great looking figures.Are we going to see them featuring in a battle report soon?
ReplyDeleteThanks Alan. I hope to fight a battle one day...... possibly using Lion Rampant.
DeleteI second that! It'd be great to see some pics of your collection 'in action', so to speak.
DeleteA good choice of rules .Have you thought however of "Stouts hearts and willing swords" available here-

It's one of my favourite figures in the Garrison S&S range, but my own inclination is to use them as High Elves - possibly because the helmet is so similar (though produced earlier) to the GM High Elves
