This looks great. I’ll have a look at all the other links you’ve included. This fall I’m starting a NWF project myself, using quite a few of the same figures. The rules you mention interest me, but I guess you are not at liberty to pass them on?

great job... I must confess I am a sucker as far BFS helmets are concerned... pith helmets?... count me in... the Camel Corps shortcut through the desert was and is one of my favourite adventures... a precedent or ancestor of the SAS in so many ways... Wolseley was a great general.

Thanks for your positive comments to date, nice soldiers and with regards to the rules I am not at liberty to share them - sorry!  Howver, I do have a part two with another regiment, see link here  (with more pictures) http://rollaone.com/2018/09/10/mahdist-war-battle-of-kirbekan-1885-a-little-more-effort-part-2/ This time some red coated men (also note the note about the black watch in the text).

There are some superb shots on your blog. Very inspiring - a period I have always wanted to have a go at. First get the Hellenistics out of the way.


A little goes a long way

Many thanks! It was all those other blogs that inspired me, that made me start mine. Good luck with the Hellenistics!
