The Indian Mutiny range is a model of having almost everything one could need but I do have one request - some naval gunners for Captain Peel's men. Any chance?
Would the naval gunners in straw hats from the Boer War range not do?
Very possibly: many thanks for the tip: I will have to investigate.
That looks a rather expensive way to get very few figures in Senet hats as I have no use for the 4.7inch Naval Gun, Can the figures be supplied separately?
I wonder how many now remember the superb field gun crew competition at the Royal Tournament? Great fun and the source of much betting round the Fleet (we then had one). I can remember seeing the Portsmouth Team training at Whale Island: lots of injuries!
Leon is normally pretty good on that sort of thing. PM him and ask.

Send a personal message to Leon.
He's been quite happy to supply one pack's guns with a different pack's crew (for the price of a single pack) in the past.
Best to check whether this is still viable in the new bigger production facility.
I doubt whether he's gone full 'Henry Ford' yet.
Alternatively just ask if he will supply the number of crew you want. You will pay a premium of a few pence a figure for this, but its not excessive.
If you don't need the guns, it's as per what Orcs has suggested. Just add them to your next order. :)
p.s. Magister Militum also offer Naval gun crews and guns in the same pack in their Crimean War range (12 crew but about £0.90 more expensive than Pendraken).
Edit: ..... and not as good as Pendraken. :-[

And another postage charge.
For crying out load, we are talking about pennies. I'm sure Leon will sell crews without guns. I seem to remember him setting out the policy on 'bespoke' orders here. There will be an additional charge but his prices are very competitive anyway.
As I recall it was 20p per pack. Should this appear to be too steep might I suggest tin cup, tambourine and a few verses of Michael Rowed the Boat Ashore on your main street.

I have added naval gun crews and some big guns to my latest order and hope Leon and the Casting Elves will be kind: I am certainly not worried about the cost! (within reason, that is - don't book that cruise, Leon!)

All received and we'll get those sorted for you asap!

Too late - just saw him at the Peir Head boarding a moblie white cliff
