Any idea where I can find ranges that cover this theme?

We need workers, civilians and gunmen for our next campaign. We currently use mainly Black Scorpion (with many other manufacturers thrown in).

There is probably a small overlap with minis covering the Taiping war, but alas that is also not a speciality of mine. Any help would be much appreciated!

Old Glory has a tong gang in its version of the West Wind Cowboy Wars range.

Dixon has a few civilians. Foundry might have something useful hidden within their various 19th century Chinese wars ranges.

Thanks, folks! I have a mail running to Tusuba (keeping it local), and if they do not react I will get the Chinatown-sets from Empress. Some of the other stuff seems to have no distributor the old side of the Atlantic, which makes them just a tad more expensive.

Seems there is a gap here in 28mm minis (hear, hear), but picking the right ones out of the available masses is part of the fun :-)

I'll mail pictures if I get them and get them painted.
