Re: Khmer Angkor Empire XII Century

The Khmer had excellent trade connections with most southeastern Asian societies, so here are a few other ideas:

Linear-A 008 The Silk Road in Ancient Times- Gives you some nice pack animals and some Chinese traders that would fit right in.

RedBox Imjin Wars Line- The Japanese are probably a little too distinctive without a bunch of remodeling, but the Chinese and Korean sets could offer some plausible options when used with the ancient Indians.

Strelets #025 Medieval Crossbowmen- May seem like a bit of a head scratcher, but crossbowmen were an important part of Khmer armies at this time and if you need groups of crossbowmen in our scale then this is basically the only choice. A few of the hooded and kettel helmet poses could be passed off as Khmer with some clever artwork and remodelling.

HaT Sumerians- Great source for a concentrated group of unarmoured spearmen and archers. The helmets are distinctly Sumerian and so present a bit of a problem, but outside of that their dress is rather Khmer or could represent something like Srivijaya to the southeast.

Thanks! Will look into those for sure. Appreciate the help.

Hi, thanks to everyone who previously replied.

(I can't figure out how to added images here) but I found another great link with images of Khmer armies and tactics (it's a FB link though won't work if I add it here).
