Title: Teaser on the Feb releases....
Post by: Leon on 28 January 2013, 07:46:58 PM
We're just getting the Feb releases sorted out, and there's an interesting new range going to be appearing for all the late 19th C. afficionado's...  Not been seen anywhere on the Forum yet...

;) :-\ :D

I'm not into the 19thC but I'm still keen to see what it is!

Cheers,

Kev

Boxer rebellion? Started in the 19th C and ended in the 20th C so could be classed as late 19thc :)

Late 19C eh? That's all very well but can they be pressganged for VBCW/1930s, this is the important question  ;D ;D ;D

Do they have puttees?

Is it a refreshed Boer War range?

(do I get a prize?)

If it is I would be very interested. The first war using smokeless powder.


Cheers, Rob  :)

My first guess is French Foreign Legion. Second guess is Italian-Ethiopian. Third guess is Spanish-American.

And my long shot guess would be - VSF.
Title: Re: Teaser on the Feb releases....
Post by: Sussex.john on 29 January 2013, 07:02:15 AM
The black hills war ?

That would be nice :)

Something in Africa? Anyway you have got us all interested you swine ;).
Title: Re: Teaser on the Feb releases....
Post by: OldenBUA on 29 January 2013, 08:09:31 AM
My guess would be something for the Risorgimento.

But maybe there will be a surprise, and you made a complete range for the Atjeh oorlog (Aceh war).

Fenians in Canada or Hungarian or Polish Revolts.

Maximillian Adventure - kind of done?

Mexican American 1846?

Great Patagonian War - haven't they done that one?

Spanish American War (technically Twentieth Century as it spills over to 1901)?

Conquest of Hawaii?

Mahdists are largely up and running already (though some Fuzzy-Wuzzy riflemen would find fans),

Ooh, we've got a winner there!  Not going to tell you who's right though...  :P

Couple more clues:
- Not really a war, very few casualties.
- Only major 5 clashes of note.

The uniforms will come in handy though...

Anglo-Zanzibar war  :D

38 minutes long you could game in real time. You'd need a model harem though

Matt, one of all time favourite war, not as good as the Anglo-Swedish war of 1810, casulties 0*, battles 0. *30 rioters killed by Swedish cavalry don't really count.
Title: Re: Teaser on the Feb releases....
Post by: Nick the Lemming on 29 January 2013, 02:18:23 PM
How can there be 0 casualties, if 30 people were killed?  :-\

Civilians don't count, if ridden down by your own side!  :D
