Very humorous; the terrain was more of a danger than the Ashanti.

What figures did you use for both sides, Paul? Thanks!

"What figures did you use for both sides, Paul? Thanks!"

I believe all of Terry's Anlgo-Egyptians are from the Essex Colonial Range (15mm).

The Ashanti are made up from a variety of left overs. The horde of screaming women and the chief are bronze age Europeans from Falcon. The extra figs on the chiefs stand are various Essex arabs.The rifle men are a mix of mogul indians, Indian mutiny musketeers and Essex biblical slingers who have been given scratch built muskets. The war band folks are a variety of Essex biblicals (guys in skirts with spears) some Feudal castings Africans, a few Essex fuzzys and several Peter Pig Polynesians. -Paul

You did a great job with the Ashanti, Paul. I thought there might have been some of Irregular Miniatures' 15mm Ashanti tossed in there as well. I've yet to see them, but hear that for one code they have several poses. I have their Abyssinians and they're excellent figures.

Thanks again, Paul! thumbs up
