D6 – Blue Moon should be posting samples soon but meantime check out Irregular Miniatures colonial range. They have several new items and, size wise, they should match well to Blue Moon. Some people decry Irregular on quality but they are just fine once painted and add variety. Check them out.

Madagascar forces were unique and should be considered for any expansion in 15mm Colonial Africa.

By the way the old Savage & Soldier magazine did a special issue on the Franco-Madagascar War of the late 1800s. It includied a lot of drawings on Madagascar forces.

Check out what Russ (Old Glory – Blue Moon Manufacturing) says here: "We will have alot for historicon. Tarzan characters, porters, pygmies,chieftans and witch doctors, villagers, prisoners, adventurers,missionaries, explorers.
More later such as wild beasts, several types of villages, and things for the Congo."
