Anyone do them gents?
I know Brigade do a Sikh 2.75".

Also there is a Ghurkha thread I started in Interwar that someone may be able to comment on:

I'm looking for 28mm stuff that will work for 3rd Afghan War-1930 on the NWF and environs.
For Scots infantry I will use Empress and possibly the Minifig 'Forgotten Front', Brits Copplestone.
I have lots of Pashtuns/Waziris etc.

I'm not that bothered about total accuracy...as you know, more that the right feel is achieved

I'm not an expert on artillery, and they just label it as "Mountain Gun", but it looks a lot like the one you want to my eyes.

This has come up in a conversation in a PM before, but it's worth mentioning, I guess. As I said I'm no expert on guns, but I'm struggling to see why a modern breech-loader needs a guy with a sponge? Any clues? Is it a mistake on the sculptor's part?

[smirnoff]

Thanks for this Plynkes. Looks about right to me.
As for the sponge no idea....

As another aside, I think they would still have had the spoked wheels in 1919. That gun was still being used in WW2, when they had the wheels with pneumatic tyres (though not exactly sure when the change happened). Nice of them to give the option.

Similarly, has anybody produced a British BL 10 pdr mountain gun for 28mm yet?

Sadly the postage costs from OG and Warweb outweigh the price of the miniatures, post is a smidge over $23US whilst the pack is $17US (Warweb has a discount offer on for $13US).

If anyone is thinking about an OG order then I'm happy to split postage.
