    Yep, first one I recognised (or really, first one that loaded), Scythian Archer. Exactly like EB´s.

    The Appomination

    I don't come here a lot any more. You know why? Because you suck. That's right, I'm talking to you. Your annoying attitude, bad grammar, illogical arguments, false beliefs and pathetic attempts at humour have driven me and many other nice people from this forum. You should feel ashamed. Report here at once to recieve your punishment. Scumbag.

    I love that collection. I wish there was more of them. He has probably gathered all pictures of steppe warriors in the world.

    I found alot of these during my AtB research. We could use people who can find pictures of Wusun cavalrymen, and Bosporan as well.

    Thanks a bunch, guys.

    You found a collection of interesting pictures relevant to EB without sharing and expect a balloon? You should be giving everybody else balloons.

    Yeh I mean, the dude wants a balloon. Who are we to deny him one of life's simple pleasures?

    One more post about balloons and I will delete all that spam in this thread.

    Is eb forum like the main discussion forum here on ancient history?

    If so I think we should start a thread where we post our favorite pictures from ancient warfare. Like all those Angus mcbride, and Johnny Shumate pictures that we have picked up on the internet or found in books. hey, lets do that!

    and it has to have one rule: no post without a picture in it
