Re: Iron Duke Miniatures Upcoming Indian Mutiny Range

Well, you know...... I've put my Indian Mutiny jaunt off for years, was going to use Foundry, then Mutineer miniatures, now I know for sure what company will be making up the majority of my collection!

These pictures are an inspiration and now I have to find a rule set that will allow one to deploy skirmishers as in on the tabletop!

Any suggestions for a Regimental rule set that allows for the literal deployment of skirmishers guys?

I'm thinking of using The Devils Wind but my copy is safely stashed in a garage (and probably [very] hidden from sight). i might order a new set- do Mutineer still carry it?

Maybe I could pick up a copy at Salute?

Actually, I've got way OT so if anyone can answer any of my questions please PM me  :)

Darrell.

I'd just like to add.... I'm blown away by the dynamism and action posture of these mini's!!  :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*

First stop st Salute = Empress Stand and buy all they have!  :D

All I need is a regimental set of rules that will suit allowing for skirmishers to be thrown forward etc.

Thanks Gents. I'm working on now the extra standard bearers that you will need to add to the commands. It won't be long till they, artillery and extra officers will be finished.

All the best

Great news. I expect that Empress will be 'creaming it in' at Salute with this range Paul! Very much looking forward to seeing the sculpts on the day and in the flesh- though I couldn't help but put a pre-order in too!

That's actually a good question?  ??? ???

Not that it will put me off buying any of these lovelies one iota.....

Thanks Paul. Its nice to get some credit when your stuck in the engine room  lol

I noticed a comment regarding the figures being smaller than other Empress ranges sculpted by Mr Hicks. Can I just confirm that they are the same size. Trust me I know a little about our ranges.

New packs will be going into the shop, with new stuff for some of our other ranges, during the next few days.

Cheers,
Paul

Have got these and they are magnificent and extremely well proportioned. I have some of the indus miniatures which I didn't know were available from wargames emporium .I also like these immensely and they are slightly smaller than iron duke
Both are a joy to paint
I would also like to praise three  companies
Black hat sent some replacement horses free and arrived by return   class
Wargames emporium  ordered sunday arrived tuesfay
Fighting 15s prompt and informative over the napoleon in Egypt  range
All brilliant and thanks
