The Huns

The Huns were a nomadic people made up of a confederation of different tribes who migrated west from Central Asia in the mid to late 4th century. Their exact origins remain a mystery with opinions varying from Chinese/Mongol to Turkic/Caucaisian. What is certain was the devastation they caused in their move into Western Europe and Roman Empire. They defeated many peoples, absorbing them into their armies to form vast raiding forces that plagued Europe for decades.

We have chosen to represent them in a varied form, taking advantage of the scarcity of information and to hopefully provide you with a colourful army that represents a mix of tribal types rather than the predictable (and unproven) pseudo-Mongol style of army. You will find a mix of Central Asian, Turkic, Scythian, Gothic and even the odd bit of Roman gear and style in this range. Something for everyone!
