I'll be bringing the Archaeological Expeditionary Corps but i'll only be using them on the sunday as we have the Trojan War game on the saturday.

This will be 30+ Pts (however many suits really!) of mixed Europeans and Egyptians/Tuaregs depending on what is needed.

I'll do some suitably archaeological terrain pieces as well.

Past experience suggests that boats are best used as terrain pieces or themed events....but I also have a small brown water navy if needed :D

I'm planning to have 30 points, disposed of thus:
2 x 12-figure units of line infantry
2 x 12-figure units of skirmishers
1 x 8-figure unit of hussars.
Sorry, no terrain or other "extras".

All will be wearing black uniforms, as befits Brunswickers; and all will be ready to stand beside the forces of the British Empire.

Good man. Thank you.

Ah yes, the Trojan game. Who else is taking part in that?

Tim, I'll be using 30 points of British Colonial/Sudan force (with some NWF Punjabi troops in the mix) with a wagon/mule train and a rather large river boat, but happy if you want to nestle that in a harbour somewhere 😀

I'm planning on doing some crew (will hopefully be purchasing this weekend at Vappa) for the river boat and there are several artillery pieces (2 x hotchkiss guns and 5 x Gatlings) that can be used with it or not. More than happy if someone wants to use those as part of a separate 30 point force.

I've also got a couple of barricade structures, made from large carts and sandbags...much akin to what you'd expect at Rourke's Drift etc.
