Hey molesworth, I have popped over to your blog a couple of times, the collection looks great, much more advanced than mine. It was your recent Govorner Generals Bodyguard unit that got me thinkign about what figures I would use, hopefully share more details ont hat later. I intend to use Black Powder when I have enough units for a decent sized game, need at least another Brigade of Company foot first, in the meantime I did try a Shar Practice game last week which I will post up very soon. |

I'm using BP too, and it looks like we've gone for the same unit sizes as well. |

Pretty much Colin, the foot in 20's I think is a good fit, I think I have horse in 10s and you have 12s but that hardly makes a difference. Currently mulling over how to do Gurkhas. |

Zamburaks are the biggest gap in Sikh armies. |

I was thinking about that the other day. I have a jingle from Empress and will add a gun officer from Foundry, maybe give it a single firing dice and just one range maybe same range as rifles. Foundry do camel mounted zamburaks that could also be used. I amy eventually get a couple of them. |

Foundry do a camel gunner in their Indian Mutiny range but if you can get hold of the old Westphalia Miniatures figures, I think Black Hussar do them now, their Persian Napoleonic range has some deployed camel guns that are superb. |

Perfik good to know, I have soem Back Hussar stiuff so will check those out. |

Murvihil you need to have alook at these, the Persians in Turban with camel guns look to be perfect for the Sikh Wars. |
