TIMUR'ARMY, armour, weapons..

[cl30]

HELLO!

I am working on my research paper on Timur but I have hard time on finding Timur's army, whereas there are tons of info on Mongols'. Can any expert on Timur's era give me some suggestions and also if you can kindly shown some pictures or illustrations on Timurs' weaponary and armours.

Thanks!!!!!!!!!

Greetings cl30, welcome aboard

You can check the Osprey book for Timur

[Temüjin]

check for example the picture thread in the military history forum. there are many studies in Russian about Temürs Army but almost nothign in English other than Age of Tamerlane by Osprey...

[Lannes]

And another Nicolle work, The Mongol Warlords... but even there, specific discussions of troops and their armament are very vague and generalized.

"there are many studies in Russian about Temürs Army"
