Once I get some available time, I plan on adding a couple of armies to this mix. Haven't decided which I'd prefer to work with but my choices are:
Painted (but not really this period):
Macedonians
Republican Romans
Unpainted:
Christian Spanish
Almorhavid
Celtic
I'll take a look at the Hyborian wars sites and see what I can match up with what. I plan on using the WAB rules for these armies. Comments welcome!
The Guardian of The Great Hall
Visitor's to the Great Hall
Enter the Great Hall of the Kingdoms of Antiquity
Welcome to the Great Hall of the Hosts, a place for feasting, drinking, wenching, bragging and other diplomatic pursuits relating to the various Kingdoms of Antiquity and their Realms. It is here that we, the Chosen Ones, shall meet to resolve the minor, and not-so-minor, differences that may exist between our respective lands regarding border disputes, commerce, claims to thrones or new lands, and other such petty matters that prevent us from retiring to our thrones and doing what we do best. Namely feasting, fighting, drinking, fighting, wenching, fighting, and bragging about fighting!
Your Hosts in the Great Hall
Your benevolent hosts for this gathering are Sir William the Wordsmith, a veteran warrior of questionable antecedants and renown prowess, along with King Adgarus of the Kingdom of Adessa. We humbly ask only that ye who enter leave your weapons and retainers outside the Great Hall. It is here that we shall repose in comfort, free to express our thoughts and vent our displeasures without thought to recrimination or violence (unless it be by the dreaded Great Hall Guards, The Administrator's!).
Make yourselves free here to express your wants and desires for your Realms, negotiate treaties, engage in commerce, and attempt to resolve disputes that might, at other times, lead to wanton violence and deprevation throughout the Kingdoms of Antiquity.

Mike,
Don't completely discount your Macedonians and Romans. The Macedonians could probably be fielded as an army of a Corinthian state and the Romans should work for an army of Argos.
Sir William
Mike,
As Bill said, the Macedonians and Romans can be used. Tony's original campaign had everything from New Kingdom Egyptian to medieval. The army I am fielding is based on the post Maurikian reform Byzantine, though I had considered Graeco-Bactrian from the 3rd century B.C. due to the elephants that are supposed to be in Iranistan
