Here are some soft customs I've created to be allies and/or enemies of my Romans, Egyptians, and Crusaders. Each faction consists of a king, queen, a standard bearer, a signaler, and two soldiers. I have 40 of each soldier type (except I only have 20 of the brown clothed faction), but didn’t want to set them all up at this time. The various factions aren’t supposed to be from any specific group, but could be from any number of groups in North Africa and/or the Middle East.
First are some soft customs that I previously posted in another thread. They are variations on the Roman Legionary Special, one of the wise men, and a female from a Magic Castle Theme set. The cataphract could be Parthian, Sassanid, or Armenian, while the others could be any of those or Hatrene, Palmyrene, Persian, Assyrian, Hittite, Mitanni, or something else.
