It is 236 all together

Darrell.

Darrel the backdrop is a large poster 6 foot by 4 that I sourced from All Posters I waited until they had a really good offer and free postage. It is velcroed on to the wall so is easily changeable.

This is the one I got hold of , it is for use in my Old West games - i will be looking for a new one more specific to the Sudan this year

Lovely stuff!  :-*

I've just finished reading Churchill's The River War about the last Sudan campaign. It's nice to read about baking hot desert conditions while looking out at all the [expletive deleted] snow hereabouts!  lol

Another recent addition for the desert column. The supply chain. Should give the Imperials something to defend!



Figures are mix of Connoisseur and Britannia if I recollect correctly.. They have been in the lead pile a very long time.
