The longest war of that time was the 1780-1821 war in the middle east, with Brits, EIC, Omanis, Iraqis, Syrians, Yemenis, Turks and Egyptians all fighting the Saudis, (Wahhabis of the Nejd and Qawasimi pirates as they were called then). If it wasn't for Napoleon stomping all over Europe, Wellington would have earned his fame in the Persian Gulf.

Am I alone in finding "Revolutionary War" ambiguous?

It seems to be commonly used in the context of 1792, guillotines, sans-culottes etc.

My initial reaction is always 1776, Washington crossing the Deleware, Riflemen with squirrel hats in their log cabins etc.

Sorry no that's the American War of Independence [AWI]

more divided by common language/nomenclature stuff I guess

Since the question was what NEW PERIODS (not what's missing from existing ranges) I'd like: Arab Israeli war of 1973 - Yom Kippur. Everything before is too one sided. Syrians on the Golan is the closest anyone ever got to invading Israel proper.

Is it me - or are some of the new period ideas more skirmish type games - might those look better in a larger scale - can I mention that 2 and 8 total 10 mm, but when placed side by side they say "28" mm?   :P
