Hi Argsilverson

My Colonial Project started life as Nicholson's Flying Column at the Seige of Dehli with OG Sikh and Pathan figures (with a dash of Foundry)

Since then, i've added Perry & Foundry British Infantry & Highlanders in Pith/khaki

So i'm creeping away from IM towards 2nd Anglo-Afghan War ... particularly as i may be investing in some Afghan Regulars (1880/1890s uniform) to go with my Pathans

That said, as my gaming buddies have forces for the Sikh Wars, Mutiny and Sudan, my Imperials (with or without Hill Tribe allies) will see plenty of action with appropriate British types for the period

Many thanks for the Links

Perry Bengal Lancers would be the safe choice i think for the NWF 1870/1900 which is where i'm at really. Could i mix Sikh and Muslim BL's in the same unit?

Bengal Lancers from the twins it is

I agree - their Sudan British are lovely figures.

There comes a point that you have to draw a line on figures. And i think i just found it
