Since I joined this forum I have experienced nothing but kindness, help and generosity from its members. As a result of their advice and several threads scattered about the forum I have been able to add several units to my Sudan Campaign 1883-5 forces. I thought that it might be helpful for any newbie venturing into this field to have a concerted list of what is available now widespread across various parts of the forum and I hope no-one minds me repeating material already available on disparate threads.
Hussars/Dragoons= ZC2, Cape cavalry
Lancers=BW1
Bengal Lancers=BP16
9 lbers and crew=ZC4
Limbers for same=ZC6
Mountain guns and crews=ZC7
Mounted Infantry=BW17
Mounted officers=BW19
Sudanese in Egyptian army=GEA1
Bashi Bazouks in Egyptian service=RT7
Sikhs=ME23
Native porters=NEA4 and some in SC13
There may well be others which forum members may wish to add. It seems Pendraken has everything to make things' all Sir Garnet' :)

Great list. You can also do the following:
Sudanese in Zouve Uniform = RT8
Gatlings = ZC3
With a little bit of brass rod, and card stock I have mad e Nordenfelt, will post picture later. Also with a little mod I have used the Camel Corp to create the Egyptian Camel corp. both do not take long and are easy conversions.
