Any chance for charging Hurons and Mohawks with knifes and tomahawks
for melee and stealthy attacks? ;D

Every chance Hombre, in fact, I've already sculpted a couple and have several others as work in progress, they're only temporarily sidelined while progressing other stuff  ;)

I can only imagine that your "melee weapons" natives will be some of the best selling in the line once finished.  It's really what we all want if you are a fan of the FIW.  Natives jumping out of the woods with a hatchet ready to mess up some Europeans.  I personally would buy MULTIPLES of these lads when they come out.

Though to me, hatchet raised while holding onto the musket seems a bit casual.  I'd love to see the musket dropped while charging with the hatchet or musket slung across the back while going in for the attack.  But I know I'll love whatever you come up with.

[edit]Tomahawk in one hand, knife in the other is pure gold!

Thanks Rusti  8)

I think you may be happy to know that I've got them with Tomahawk and knife and slung musket as work in progress for both packs  :D
Their turn will come to be completed  :)

I thought I'd pop in this picture of a bow-armed Mohawk I sculpted a little while back - more to follow.   :D

Damned, i thought I'd pop in a big FIW project!!  lol
After a little discussion with my wife,we come to an agreement.
I play the french and huron, and she the british and mohawk!
So we only have to buy a big bunch of these fantastic miniatures and make suitable
terrain! :D

Bodes well for the future  ;)

When my wife and I first got together, she took up my other interests of target shooting and re-enactment, but has only occasionally painted figures - when she has, they've been at least on a par with my own. I need to try to get her to paint some of my sculpts, and she's the other director of Galloping Major; but when it comes to wargames, I haven't managed to draw her in, if only we had more (some  lol) spare time.

I've just about managed to convince my girlfriend that she wants to make some terrain for wargames. That'll have to do for me. lol
