I'd love to see that infantry marching band in one of your battles.
I have the old Phoenix Model Developments Guards band, and it will no doubt see the elephant when the dastardly Prussians land their flyers at Horse Guards Parade.

You shall pay for your insolence with a whiff of grape! What! What!

Being a Victorian officer of the Crown and gentleman of high regard I decide when Hell freezes over. If Hell freezes over without the appropriate authority a gunboat will be dispatched.

Certainly. Here's Fighting 15s:



As you can see they may be a bit late for yor purposes, with them wielding Lee-Enfields rather than the Henry Martini.
