Another unit disembarks in preparation for the summer campaign (next Southern hemisphere summer that is). Please pop over and take a look. Black Tree Design miniatures.
Cheers

Zounds! Those are REALLY nice! I especially like the 2-figure movement stands. I look forward to seeing AARs of the campaign.

Nice as always Brian, and no that is the correct colours (in fact the blue was almost black but that doesn't work well on miniatures and I do the same as you do lighten up the blue) what rules are you using for your AngolZulu wars BTW?

Brian Smaller27 Jun 2014 5:17 p.m. PST

Rules? I haven't got that far yet:) To be honest I have no idea. I have Black Powder which is a start. I hear that TSATF are good but I will have to get hold of a copy for myself to see.

Awesome looking unit! Great job. I recommend Black Powder. They're my go to rules for Zulu War and Sudan battles!

Brian,

You can order TSATF directly from us:

sergeants3.com

or from Gerry and Carolyn Webb at Castaway Arts (our International stockists) in Cairns:

castawayarts.com.au

Good Colonial Gaming!

Cheers for that info. On my shopping list. Have to raise the Impis first though:)

First off..

I AGREE.. these look Great. I really lke the way you did your 'two man' movement trays. By not having then glued down, you can use "Black Powerder", for larger battles or go with TSATF, which was built with much smaller Skirmish battles in mind. All depends on what you want..heck get both, more options.

As for the mini's, my personal choice has been Wargames Factory. I love the way the Zulu's paint up. I have 60 done, another 30 waiting there turn in the 'things to do" line.
I have yet to complete my Colonial British infantry. The hands arent as steady as they should be for those 'snow white" belts n buckles. And on the down side, WGF does not have a Cav. set to support (no pun intended) this range.

keep up the Great work Brian
