This line is called Victoria's Enemies. The sample set is Mix Pack #14 - Mahdist Ansar Riflemen which consists of (20 figures - 2 each of VE(E) 1-10). A very nice mix of 10 different poses - running (6), kneeling (6), firing (2), and advancing (6) riflemen. These figures will make a nice addition to any army of Mahdists; each is a little gem. Each pair of like poses has a face different from the other pairs - various beards or clean shaven. Very fine details, even the ubiquitous patch work of the Ansars is inscribed along with nice bandoleers and weapons. Too bad there are none with skull caps for even more variety. As it is, since all have turbans they might do double duty as Pathans or other North West Frontier types. These figures are very compatible with Essex, maybe a true 15M on the Barrett Scale but most are kneeling or crouching so hard to measure. Available from Brookhurst Hobbies - see their advt elsewhere in this issue for their address. - More Reviews Guernsey Foundry 25mm Pony Wars US Cavalry (figures) Guernsey Foundry 25mm 7YW Russians (figures) Two Dragons Productions 15mm Colonials (figures) Jacobite 15mm Feudal Sung Chinese (figures) Tumbling Dice 1/72 Wars of the Roses (figures) Merrimac Miniatures 15mm Paddle Steamer SHQ 20mm British Vickers MMG and Bren LMG Teams (figures) Military Miniatures 15mm WWII Marder I (vehicle) Hallmark Figures 1/1200 WWII B-17D (aircraft) FAA 20mm 1939 Polish Command (figures) FAA 20mm 1939 German Dismounted Tankers (figures) Outpost Wargame 20mm British Korean War Comand (figures) Quad Scale Productions 15mm WWII JU-87D1 Stuka (aircraft) Peter Pig 15mm WWII Gaz 4x4 Heavy Truck (vehicle) Pass of the North 15mm Ancients (figures) Old North State 10mm ACW (figures) Crossfire WWII Rules: WWII Infantry Simtac Red Star/Blue Sky Rules: WWII Air Combat Easy Eight Battleground WWII Rules: Skirmish Red Devils in the Night: Battleground WWII Supplement Rules Killer Katana Rules: Samurai Army Warfare Ge Koku Jo Rules: Samurai Skirmish Castles, Cogs, and Chevauchees Rules: Medieval Supplement Legion Rules: Ancient Warfare Back to Table of Contents -- Courier #74 To Courier List of Issues To MagWeb Master Magazine List © Copyright 1998 by The Courier Publishing Company.
