... apart from this, I learned that wargame soldiers are never killed - they are only out of Action and can be resurrected - so basically unconscious
how this is gonna work with the cannon thing or Machinegunned Zulus is hard to tell....

Back in the days, when I was actually playing games, I hardly have any "casualties" in my army… Thanks to my particularly bad dices rolls my army’s manoeuvres had two phases; deploy… and run away! lol

Oh, and back on subject, I’m eager to see those figures as well… :D

a Gandhi Miniature would be nice though

But of limited use in the mutiny era.

Perhaps his grandfather would be an option ?

no, I think non-combattants should be left out - we have lots to paint anyway.

I like miniatures for civilians. Of course, not depicted as casualties but alive (as they should be). They add flavor to a gaming table and can even be part of the scenario plot (informants or captives that need to rescued).

And depending on era/conflict you also get journalists (war correspondents), missionaries & aid workers (imminent hostages), political figures (objectives)

I love to have civilians on the table to spice up the game
only my strange humour is sometimes hard to get

sorry again

Aye. Can't wait. There's a shocking shortage of quality Gurkhas.

Hi
I better introduce myself just joined the forum my name is Brian Sweeney owner of Mutineer Miniatures, Just embarking on our first figure range 28mm Indian Mutiny.  The figures are being sculpted by Mike owen (Artizan) and we are about three weeks away from them being on the shelves. I agreed with Mike not to post greens pictures as the proportions are different in final metal figures. I will post the first master figures when available and take pre-orders from then. the first packs will be EIC/British infantry, Highlanders and Mutineer infantry including Ghazi (bandit types) Best to register on the website to get up to date info and any introductory offers www.mutineerminiatures.com.

The first show the figures will be available is Fiasco leeds November, The rest of the shows we will attend are
Targe
Warfare
Smoggycon
Recon
2010
Albnach
Salute
Carronade
possibly york and the triples

In addition to our figures we have a range of custom 28mm Terrain roads rivers trees etc, also we carry a full stock of mininatur/ silflor products tufts and other basing products.

We also have the full range of Shellhole scenics buildings and offer a painting service for these buildings

I am lucky to have on board some excellent In house painters for the Figures and shell hole buildings (Piers) is my figure painter and I just love his style and quality and Marco from Rif Raf paints our shell hole buildings. I very much look forward to meeting many of you at the shows and chatting on the forum.

And I had a great weekend at the beast lair playing BCW great bunch of guys, sadly my dice rolling was abysmal,

Hi Brian, thanks for all that info. I'm sure a lot of LAFers are looking forward to your Mutiny range. Unfortunately CRISIS in Antwerp is not on your roadshow list, that would have been a nice opportunity for us "continentals" to see the minis in the flesh. For 2010 you mentioned "Albnach". May I ask what and where that is?
