Scale and purpose

The 1/72 scale allows for the creation of impressive battle scenes while keeping the figures compact. It is the most popular scale among enthusiasts of historical battles, especially medieval themes. The set depicts Arab warriors, an essential element of Middle Eastern armies during the Crusades.

Historical information

Arab warriors played a significant role during the Crusades period (from the 11th to 13th centuries). Their armies effectively resisted European Crusaders, including under the command of figures such as Saladin. The warriors were equipped with various types of melee weapons, bows, and wore extensive protective lamellar armor. The Italeri figures enable you to realistically recreate units from this turbulent period of history.
