Captain Darling:
Belgium, June 18 1880...
Troubled and flustered Lieutenant Cartwright hollered over the din of gunfire to Captain Darling, "Darling the Marconi Wireless set is on the blink again! How can we summon reinforcements?"
Darling replied calmly while engaging in sword play with two rather brutish looking Imperial French Grenadiers, "Well that's rather unfortunate Cartwright, especially with all these damnable Frenchies trying to cook our bacon. Don't worry though ol' chap there's always the Heliograph! Kindly ask Sergeant Over and Corporal Under to fetch it forthwith!", meanwhile with a couple of deft lunges Darling put paid to the Gauloises smoking Frenchman threatening the Communications Post...

Red Orc:
They look great! I so nearly bought these chaps the other week when Ironclad were having their sale, and I chickened out. Of course, I wish I hadn't now. My plan was to get two galvanic cannons, one artillery crew and the heliograph team, then integrate them with the artillery crew to make two crews with a 'spotter' and maybe someone consulting the Field Manual... but then I decided to get two artillery crews as it was the more 'sensible' option. Oh, 'sensible' be damned!
Captain Darling:
Thanks Guys!
Doug those guys lounging in the background are a couple of naval chaps I picked up in a trade not sure of the make but they painted up okay and make perfect background lounging types...plus one day I’ll build that small steamer for them to command!
