Hi

Could the WW1 Indians/sikhs do for the northwest frontier 1895+ aswell.

Jim

Hi

Yes! Possibly suitable for a Punjabi Regt. but certainly compatible with the NWF range. Although the rifle is different compared with the Martini-Henry but in 10mm the difference isn't dramatic. I would also recommend the Indian lancers from the WW1 range as well for the Bengal lancers. Sorry I haven't got them painted yet so no photos

cheers for that.

What kind of poses do you get in a bag. I`m going to do the NWF and want a bit variety with the sepoys. I was going to use boer war lancers but your suggestion sounds better.

Jim

They're advancing.  You could also use the artillery crews, we can put them with the earlier mountain gun.

cheers

You know what I`m going to ask next don`t you.

Any chance of a photo.

Jim

Hi

Just noticed there are two codes for indian infantry one in the WW1 british and one in the middle east section.

Are they the same figures ?.


Jim

I've made another brave foray into the world of computers and hopefully the photo I've taken with my phone camera will show the WW1 Indian infantry and the lancers behind. The chaps either end of the infantry line are from the existing NWF range for comparison. On the topic of the difference between the Indians from the WW1 Middle Eastern range and the European threatre I would like to know as well,  so if any one has photo of them, I would be greatful. Now I'm going to lie down after all this high tech stuff 

Christ! It worked!

donkey`s k**b -  just the job.

Slang for jolly good show for the benefit of southern people.

Jim

Are you trying to bastardise CRS for some poor northern substitute Jim??!

Everyone knows that 'donkeys' = 'years'

...it's "dog's knob" that you're looking for = 'job'

These Indian infantry figures are amazing! I dream of Indian 18/19 century Sepoys made like these...

No it`s definitely donkey`s Nik

I checked but dogs could be subsituted south of the latitude of watford gap services.
