How about some pistol/carbine armed cavalry in 'western' hats for ACW western theatre or plains war? Some of the new ACW figures might look 'ok', but maybe a little bit too 'reb' for union or 7th cav. OK, they were a scruffy bunch, but less beard and wider brimmed hats without front turn-ups or feathers? The raider with pistol at waist level would be fantastic with a head swap! That handgun is superb for 10mm but he just doesn't feel like a 'proper' film/TV cavalryman with a full beard and a narrow brim hat. Oh, and rifle armed rebs for mounted infantry...for theatre accuracy, of course!   ;D

Another vote for this to fill a hole in the range. Pony Wars rules are about to become available again and seems a great shame there aren't any mounted and dismounted opposition for the Plains Indians. A couple of scout poses would also be useful and some pack mules please.

I was hoping to have had these done ready for Pony Wars but with the delays on the Peninsular range we're about 6 months behind on the sculpting schedule.  If we can get the Naps finished up then I'll look at squeezing these in before we move on to anything else.

Can we have pack mules as well for Benteen, horse holders and some suitable figures for casualties, low ammunition markers please. You can see which side I'm gunning for can't you.

Please, Please Please!!!

Pony Wars is at the printers and due to drop very soon - We NEED some "Holywood" 7th cavalry types!

We've got them on the list and I was hoping to get them done before Pony Wars launched but I don't think it's going to be possible.  Tony's tied up with the Peninsular Naps project so I can't get anything else from him until we've got that finished off I'm afraid.

Great to hear they are on the list! Thanks Leon
