In Peter Jackson's The Return of the King, Variags were depicted as a cross between feudal Japanese and Mongolians, with such objects as the vertical flag attached to the back of the warrior, except that the Variag chieftains rode in chariots. I found this on wikipedia .. is it true? I have never seen any warriors liek this in the movies..... If it is true, the games workshop design is pretty spot on!

Don't believe all that you read on Wikipedia 
But to answer the question, there is no reference to Variags of Khand in the extended version, nor 'the making of' DVD's so I think that they have made a mistake, perhaps confusing it with Games Workshop |

Having read through the article on Easterlings, it looks like they should be more Viking than Japanese! |
