  • Hattusas: J Random Bostwick

• Various Wild Tribes (might be in or might not, depending on interest; we'd certainly like at least a couple of these guys):
  • Gasgans http://meshwesh.wgcwar.com/armyList/summary
  • Zagros or Anatolian Highlanders http://meshwesh.wgcwar.com/armyList/summary
  • Kassites, Hurrians, or Nairi http://meshwesh.wgcwar.com/armyList/summary
• Dorians (use Urnfield Culture North Europe)
  • http://meshwesh.wgcwar.com/armyList/summary
  • Scott Kastler

The Urnfield Culture North Europe is not actually on-map at this point (it is starting to develop in Poland), but we have no real evidence as to the tribes directly outside the Mycenaean Greek and Hittite spheres in what is now Thrace, and the pre-Urnfield "Early Bronze Age North Europe" army list does not seem appropriate to what evidence we do have. So the Urnfield list here represents the Phrygians, Lycians, proto-Illyrians, proto-Thracians, and Dorian Greek tribes outside the Mycenaean palace culture military system.

I can put together Kassite or early Aramaean but, using Essex LPIA stand ins ....if you think that would work.

That's perfectly acceptable, Spencer. Go for Aramaean, if you would -- I've got a Midianite loaner, and it's better to delete a zone on the outside rather than on the inside, especially with a map-shape like this.

Got it....bringing Aramaean.
