Fantastic stuff, the Bengal Horse Artllery and ad hoc cavalry are exquisite.

My question is will the gaps in GAPS be filled? We have flank company in uncovered shakos and centre coy packets in covered shakos. Will there be matching centre coy and flankers for each and will there be command in the near future?
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Those Afghans are getting bought. Pronto!

I do hope the Afghan range is expanded upon to include more poses. I can see a couple of units for winter being painted up for my Second Anglo Afghan War project, about double the size of the Perry unit below (in summer Dress):


The plan is to use Kevin Calder's Up the Nile rules with amendments (combined with his Bonnie Blue Flag ACW rules so I can include Afghan Regulars).

Kudos to Jeff(?) for doing such a damn fine job on the brushwork too.

I would dive right in but I'm embroiled in so many projects at present even I recognise it would be a step too far at present.

I very ku8ch look forward to seeing more as they are released  8)

I wasn't aware there was an EU distributor or have I missed something?
