I'm confused about what miniature I should get to represent the Sea Peoples HCh (gen) option in DBA 3. The book says I need a 3 crew chariot. I have all Essex so far for my sea peoples, but Essex doesn't seem to make a 3 horse chariot for Sea Peoples which has a general in it. Who does? Thanks.

I suggest getting a regular Sea Peoples chariot and a foot command pack, and put the foot general in the chariot.

The general will fit?

I will let someone more familiar with Essex figs answer that one. I am generally of the "find a way or make a way" frame of mind and rwgularly attack my projects with saws and knives

jeeves,

Place an extra figure or two on the base if they cannot fit inside the chariot. As "runners" they would move the same speed as HCH and it gets the point across as a command element.

Cheers,

What about the old glory sea peoples line? Or do they not match up size-wise with essex whatsoever? Thinking of using their chariot.

timurilank25 Jun 2016 2:58 p.m. PST

The two would match height-wise, but OB look better feed.

Know it's not historically accurate but my mate used ox carts to act as heavy "chariots" in his FoG Sea People army. Interesting sight with them trundling over the tabletop like ancient tanks….   They fit a crew of 3 so if you want a different look perhaps that's an option – his were Chariot/Magister Militum
