Yes, I too have seen at least one wall painting of a chariot. What strikes me as odd, is that they are crewed by non-warriors. May be they were just ceremonial? In any case, yes, they did have them.

Hello Claus.
For some reason the Minoans in their wall paintings looked like women. That doesn't mean they weren't warriors.

I have actually found many proofs of the presence of chariots in Crete. I have also found no evidence of non-combat use.

From my reading, and I know that it is not in the Greek, the scholars seem to debate if that painting is male or female. In any case, I've decided to paint up a few chariots. I surmise that even if they didn't use them, that it is easier to add them if you have them, than not if you don't.

It's women as long as it's a woman and a muscular guy on top. Who is presented with intense muscles but with feminine beauty.
I don't think women of that time had such rights. That is, to drive chariots.

A fantastic army/array Claus! I appreciate beautiful dioramas, but *this* is the ultimate use figures in my (extremely biased) opinion!
Your colourful units look excellent. I especially liked the calf-skin shields.
I cannot wait to see the chariots and, even more so, photos of them in 'action' in a game; 'historical', quasi-historical or completely what-if!

Thanks James :) I like them too, and look forward to them battling it out, probably with some Libyans.
