Whatever it is at the very least it will be able to be cherry picked for officers etc I am sure, not to mention the VSF brigade.

I know what I want it to be but I doubt I will be that lucky but as Mother used to say "you will have to wait and see"


...aaand that's how we eventually grow to resent our mothers.

As a betting man, I would put my money on a Northwest Frontier range. Why? Of the major British conflicts, one else really does a good one anymore that I know of, with the exception of the Foundry Hill Tribesman (which is a small number of figures).  Also, with respect to the sculpting, I would say that from Taliban to Pathans is not a huge jump in some ways.

This is despicable!!!
I hate being teased...unless its by a woman with a feather dus...ohhh never mind.

If you do more character packs for Rorkes Drift then Ill buy into the new range too, if you dont I wont! Ok, I probably will but im not happy , unless its NW frontier , then Im delighted, but i cant afford the time for a new range, but Ill buy them anyway.

You see, ya got me in a tiswas

New range.................NWF i reckon too or possibly 2nd Boer War, both I've noticed seem to be on a lot of wish lists? Suppose a complete range for French North Africa, FFL,Spahis, Tirrailieurs, mule companys................ is just a forlorn hope lol.

More Zulu War stuff as well and better than before? Going by the quality of whats already been released then im getting excited too  ;D! Perhaps the Ladies can drop the odd clue now and then to see what our imaginations come up with?

NWF by Mr Hicks would indeed be awesome! If it is'nt NWF then hopefully Empress will consider it as a project for 2012. Whatever the new colonial range turns out to be its got me excited! Just about to start on my Zulu War project, so the news that this range is getting alot of attention this year is very cool.

NWF would be awesome as it would mean not having to pay the insane Foundry prices for tribesmen anymore.

Maori wars?  Something compatible with the AZW figures?  Can't be Sudan, they would not be mad enough to take on the Perry's.

More Transvaal war Boers would be good, it's the 130th anniversary this year and I am aiming to do a few games later in the year should the range appear.

Hmm, so what else could it be?  Ashanti wars???

And what of the new AZW figures? Naval Brigade (I already have Perrys and Copplestones, although a 24pdr rocket team as shown in the Osprey British Forces In Zululand would be good, hint hint)?  NNH I would expect to be in there and probably FLH.

I bow to your superior knowledge but I presumed the Boers thay had released were for the first Boer War?
