Title: Boer War Requests
Post by: Rifleman on 12 August 2013, 09:31:42 AM
Just received my first order from your Boer War range. Nice figures and I'm very pleased.

I'd like to make a few suggestions for completing the range -

12pdr Royal Horse Artillery
Helmeted and slouch hat horse holders
Boer horse holders (not sure if Confederate horse holders from ACW range will double-up?)
Standing horses (again, possible the ACW standing horses will suffice?)
Limber horses - artillery limbers were pulled by 6 horses, but the existing artillery codes only provide 4)
Ammunition wagons - caissons for artillery and carts for infantry
Ambulance wagons
Stretcher bearers
Alternative poses for dismounted cavalry codes BW23 and BW24

Thanks and here's hoping !!!

Matt

I second that!
I also realise now that I've posted my 'request' in the wrong category, but if you would be so nice as to put the riders on half of the limber horses I would be delighted!

Thanks,
Rob

There are unridden standing horses in the C19th range.

I was thinking (so sorry, I'll try to minimize my thinking to an absolute minimum!) that riders for the British Boer War artillery horses might be done relatively easy by adapting the 'mounted Infantry in Pith helmet' figure...
You could cut away the rifle and add a holster with revolver, a right leg guard and the horses harness from putty...? The hosre fits in nicely with the supplied artillery horses and it would probably be a relatively quick and easy conversion...
Because of the numbers needed and the expertise available at your company I wasn't planning to attempyt it myself, but I thought (...oops sorry, did it again!) this would be a decent chance to further enhance the product!

Cheers,
Rob
