Those Sikhs are great as the rest of the range, sadly I can't get access to them in time for next weekend at the profs manor!

Gun crews look nice. When are the British gun crews coming?

Oh yes, those Sikh cmmd must be mine!  Although I still can't decide between GW's The Great War or Iron Ivan's Price of Glory.

Chuck I have both and I can say it's a rather easy choice. With GW Great War, you need 100+ miniatures, while with Price of Glory 100 would be a very, very large force, 50 miniatures would be more than enough. So just decide how large you want your games.

That's true. One advantage of Price of Glory is that you can have a pretty good game with hardly any figures.

Here's a good quick game we had with a small figure total:

My The Great War battalion has 67 figures including support.  I am a Disposable Heroes fanboy but The Great War kicks Price of Glory butt  lol

Do you think?

I haven't actually played it yet, but nothing I've read in the rules jumps out to make me want to switch over to it from PoG.

Oo, that Sikh officer (far right in the picture) would do nicely as HQ for my British Infantry.  :D

Hi Everyone,  Ok, I guess I'll give Price of Glory a try first. I like the other Iron Ivan rules I've played before.  I've already bought about 50 Brigade Sikhs and a fistful of Renegade Brits, I'll pick up some Germans at H-con and get the party started!
