Dutch Colonial gaming and KNIL background?
« on: December 03, 2016, 03:44:21 PM »
Tiger miniatures is rereleasing  their "East of Java" range, and, although I am still warming up to the figures, I am interested in learning more about the conflict. From a quick Google search, I presume these figures are for the Aceh War? Anyone steer me toward some books or websites with more info?

Hey, thanks! Unfortunately all of the photos are no longer visible in that thread, so it has somewhat limited utility. I will do some more digging on the Web and post whatever I can find for posterity. At the very least I'd need to dig up some painting references!

This helped me a great deal when I painted up my knil  force. I'll try to take some photos of what I have later

I love this photo
