Other enemies include Wahhabis, the Ottomans, the Afghans and even the East India company. That and the miniatures work for a period of almost 70 years.

Cool! Armed garden gnomes. :)
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

I'll need to fulfill the Kickstarter first. I'll drop them in the shop once everyone who pledged has their figs.i think that this will be the case in about 3 weeks.

I prefer the phrase 'belligerent smurfs' myself...  :D

Knowing little of the period I looked at the wiki and the Napoleon Series entries on the Russo-Persian War(s). It seems that even belligerent might be a misnomer judging by accounts of their martial ability.

Superb looking miniatures whatever the case and as it seems the same figures can be used for a variety of conflicts up to and including the British 1857 campaign a very useful and adaptable set. Really nice to see manufacturers catering for the esoteric.  Not sure I will venture into yet another bit of exotica but looking at the full range it is fairly tempting.  Of course I might just buy one or two simply to put fishing poles in their hands.  :)
