Parthian light infantry

The Hat Parthian cavalry came with a few light infantry with shield/javelin and bow. I'm not sure how I will use them in what is essentially a mounted army, but I painted them so I had the choice is needed.  The main problem is that as they are add ons to the mounted sets there is only one pose of each, which makes very boring irregular skirmishing units.

In a DBA army you can use 1 Aux element ( 3 Javelin figs ) and or 1 Psiloi element ( 2 Bow figs ).

Not sure what the FoG or WHAB lists require/allow. But I'm sure light foot will find a use.

Cheers,

Stan.
