Thanks Greywolf! An Order of the Wolf - I quite like that, but there could only be one person I could award it to  ;)

And just posted a 1754 map of the Coromandel Coast to the blog as well.

 Keep up the great work!  It is truly inpsirational.  Now I will be on the look out for more elephants.

 What other period can have cannon, musket volleys, Knights, Horse Archers, Hordes, and elephants all together.
 
 I have a a large "Napoleonic Colonial" Collection (ie: the Redoubt Wellington in India Range) that I enjoy gaming with a lot.  I also have added a number of other manufacturers to my forces as well.  For French Officers, I have added the Alternate Armies Flintlouque Elves.  I would have liked to add an infantry unit with the fore and aft bicorns but the figures just looked too cartoonish to warrant it.  I have also added a number of the Reaper Figures with the Arabian Overtones as these seem to fit in well with the scale. (I don't even know what the scale is.) I finally broke down and painted a number of the Redoubt British in Bicorns as French from the "Army of the Orient."  I am always on the lookout for figures that will "fit in" with the scale and period and if you know of any pleae let me know.

 I look forward to seeing more of your work.  Thank you very much
