    For those of you interested, you may want to check the Osprey books concerning Byzantine warfare of the period...

    There are some wonderful color plates by major artist Angus McBride.

    I'll try and scan some of them and post them in this tread as well.

    Flax : are those you posted from any Osprey book I missed ?
    King Baldwin the Tyrant, King of Jerusalem, Warden of the Holy Sepulchre, Slayer of Sultans in the Crusades Hotseat (new write-up here and previous write-up here)
    Methodios Tagaris, Caesar and Rebelin LotR
    Mexica Sunrise : An Aztec AAR

    Yup, both the images and the arms and armor came from Osprey books. Specifically "Byzantine Armies 886-1118" and "Byzantine Infantryman: Eastern Roman Empire c. 900-1204". I also have "Romano-Byzantine Armies 4th-9th Centuries" and "Byzantine Armies 1118-1461". I figured I'd post some stuff from the latter as the game progressed.
