Title: Alternate weapons for Perry Zouaves.
Post by: eilif on October 17, 2014, 08:53:34 PM

Am looking at Perry Zouaves as a possible VSF choice.  They are stuitably gaudy and there's so many groups they could be painted up as.  However, I want my VSF troops to have weapons that are slightly closer to the turn of the century.  Something like a Martini-Henry or even something bolt actioned, I'm not really picky about pseudo-historical accuracy.

The point of the plastic Zouaves would be to do this on-the-cheap, so what kind of options do I have for affordable scale-appropriate weapons?

Also, for anyone that has this kit, how many of the command sprues does it come with?

One command sprue, but they are available on their site for a £1:
