Anybody have 15mm figure recommendations for Khwarizmian Heavy Lancers? The descriptions I've read has them on fully armoured horses, lance, bow, shield.

This is David Nicolle's version of Khwarizmian heavy cavalry. The helmet is a Cuman-Qipchaq style, and IIRC there is a drawing in the book of an excavated all-iron round shield that may be Khwarizmian; otherwise I am not sure what his sources are.

You could do worse than look at the Mirliton or Legio Heroica Crusade-era Muslims.
