Emishi is a generic term used to describe all the populations that lived in the Northern part of Japan, specifically in the island of Hokkaido, known as Ezo, and the northern half of the Tohoku (northeast) region of Honshu. They include tribes that are considered to be the ancestors of Ainu, but also settled populations that lived closed to the Japanese and blended more with the Yamato culture. These figures are light Emishi foot archers, forest dwellers and northern tribes types, best suited as skirmishers psiloi (O) or irregular bowmen (I).

The Island of Hokkaido was the best of Japan's horse-raising country, where there is much open land capable of providing sufficient grazing. After 700AD Emishi usually fought on horseback and they had a reputation as master horse archers, greatly feared and respected by contemporary Japanese: "Mounted archery is the custom of the barbarians. Ten of our commoners can not stand up against one of them"! These are mounted Emishi archers, they are best suited for the later period, as irregular LH(S) or irregular Cv(O). They are primarily intended to be used in DBM list 6 book III Emishi 500AD - 1100AD, list 7 Book III Pre-Samurai Japanese 500AD - 900AD or as allies for list 54 Book III Early Samurai 900AD - 1300AD
This pack introduce a new original approach to mounted figures; the bottom half of the rider is cast in one piece with the horse, while the top half is a separate piece, which is fixed in place by a peg that fits in a corresponding hole on the mount. This method let you easily mix and match mounts and riders for the maximum variety and also allow the upper half of the body to be glued in almost any position from straight forward, to the side all the way to nearly facing backward in a "Parthian shot".
Each pack contains 4 randomly assorted horse and riders.
All figures are sold unpainted!
