I'm falling down this rabbit hole, dragging out long stored Afghan type figs. Can someone recommend suitable artillery pieces for the Afghans?

Perry have a mountain gun in their Victoria's Little Wars range...I don't know if its strictly correct for 1857, but I'll probably use it myself ... I'm going to field a force for a Mughal prince as well, and that will have some very exotic artillery... the only difference being that I'd expect the afghan artillery to be very limited due to the terrain.

Had a bit of time this weekend to rebase some plastic Wargames Atlantic Afghans - not originally painted by me...I've just given them a bit of a touchup, and a rebase to fit in with my other figures.





The WA figures are bigger than the Foundry range, but look fine in separate units IMHO.

A mounted badmash?  Or more likely mounted troops of some local potentate with illusions of grandeur during the Mutiny?  When not representing actual Afghans?

Nice addition.
