Are you planning on producing casualty figures, especially a couple propped up on the battlements of the fort?
That would be great.I had some like that from Redoubt.I use to have a nice fort from Village Green.

I picked up a few packs of these figures and am very pleased with my purchase. I am thoroughly enjoying painting them.

Hi Peter
The plan is to make other French colonial troops such as Spahis, Goumiers and Tirailleurs. But Arabs/Berbers enemies will come first!

Thank you very much for your order!

I understand (enemies first)! But then, besides the Spahis, Goumiers and Tirailleurs (looking forward to these, of course), what about mounted Légionnaires? We absolutely need them for the Sud-Oranais to guard the camel caravans!  ;)

I have added a small second order, the third one will follow soon!

wow.  All I can say is, wow.  And then sigh... because I haven't bought FFL figures in more than two decades, but I will have to start buying a bunch of these.

Bravo!   at least we ll have somebody who makes them!!!!...please stick to arabs and, above all,  "Berbers"..no tuaregs please...they were few, very unwill to fight regular troops and never met  and probably never heard about Foreign Légionaires...wargames in which Légionaires are fielded against Tuaregs..instead of castings representing Berbers/Moroccans  which are difficult/impossible to find except maybe Castaway ..reminds me Mid Seventies/Early Eighties  Italian Ancient  Wargame Championships played with WRG 5th Edition..in which my Early Imperial Romans had to face in turn, Samurai, Kitian Lao Chinese and 100YW English  lol

People want Tuaregs, Italwars. They look impossibly cool, even if they have nobody to fight.  :)


And Imperial Romans vs. Samurai is a proud wargaming tradition.  lol
