Description

This army can be used to represent Assyria during the Iron Age after the reforms of King Tiglath-Pileser III. At this time Assyria controlled an empire that included Egypt as well as most of the Near East. During this period the Assyrians replaced the light chariots with effective cavalry supported by larger and heavier chariots. Four-horse chariots were in use by the reign of Ashurnasirpal (685-627 BC).
