I wonder if there'll be a command pack in this release?

I wonder if there'll be a command pack in this release?

I've got my fingers crossed! 

I also, wonder what the strength both on paper and in actuality the various Afghan regiments were at the time of the Second Afghan War??

Seems like every time I decide to place an order for Artizan figures, a couple of days later they release new ones that I really must have immediately!

It's part of their dastardly plan

Darrell,

Here's a link to the index page in an online edition of "The Second Afghan War, 1878-1880: The Official Account" written by Sir Charles Metcalfe Macgregor & published by the Indian Army Intelligence Brnach, which includes best estimates of the complete Afghan Army roster at the start of the war...

...just click on the one section of the book that is brought up on the link page and it will send you to the start of the appropriate section, which runs from p.633 to p.635

Thanks for that Mad guru  .to the rescue again!!

Problem is, I can't seem to access the literature! Do I need an Ap? (I know- technologically challenged!)

Darrell... oh, no, that's a bummer and I'm very sorry to hear it!  It works for me and I have no idea why it would not work for you, though of course we are on different continents, but that doesn't usually matter!  You certainly don't need an Ap, it should work fine just by clicking on it, but... try this one for which I didn't just cut-&-paste but used the "Insert Hyperlink" feature:

Trying a "work-around" solution, Darrell!  Hopefully here is the third and final page of the index in question, which includes the standard paper strength of different types of regiments and the number of such regiments in the army at the outbreak of hostilities in 1878:
