Macedonian Cavalryman

This figure is almost certainly the 'S' range Macedonian Cavalryman coded AMdC 1s in the 72/73 catalogue. Because cavalry figures don't have their codes marked they can be hard to identify, but this figure's open helmet suggests he is the Macedonian. All the 'ancients' in this first 'S' range are coded 'A' for ancients - so Ancient Macedonian Cavalryman 1.

I've mounted him onto the ACH 5s - Ancient Cavalry Horse Trotting according to the 72/73 catalogue. It's a very generic beast that lacks any tack front and back - but I seem to have rather a lot of them.

The figure is basically a shielded Companion and so perhaps better suited to the armies of Alexander's successors rather than those of Alexander himself. It's a neat little figure who deserves a better horse - he would sit a PB mount quite nicely.
