Just wondering if it would be feasible to field archers in a 1750'ish Mughal army.
Would it be not too unhistorical to use Vendel ancient Indian longbowmen?

Thanks

Short answer is "yes it would be unhistorical" but remember that the miniatures are only representations of a troop type, so it's up to you.

Grumpy do a nice 15mm Moghul range which might give you some inspiration for the overall feel of the period in question.

Ottoman azabs with bows would look more historical.
