Fabulous work - especially the of skellies, I love those things. The warriors and the horsemen, are they the same old plastic kits from the 90's that GW recently re-released in their 'Old World' boxings or are they older?

Ah right - that's what I was wondering. I didn't think they looked the same minis, I'll steer clear of those then.

Kinda similar, but the sprue has more bits and they have separate bodies:

Whilst I do have some Citadel skellies, a lot of mine are the old Wargames Factory miniatures, currently the licence is with Warlord and you can pick up 90 for the modest sum of about £60. https://store.warlordgames.com/products/children-of-the-hydras-teeth-skeleton-host or they do have a smaller set. They are very harryhausen in look, fairly delicate to be honest. However I think they look great. So might be a cheaper than ebay option if you need some bones. Some of the other newer plastic kits are quite nice as well to be honest.
Some examples.

Well if your playing against an Empire Army it'd be fun!
It'd be an awful mess of a game, where setting up would take longer than the game!
