Russ' command ready to go into action. These figures were painted by Me.
PC050218

The same bunch who took on the Cavalry. No they are not Lancers, in the early part of the Sudan Campaign, I believe, the British Cavalry used spears taken from the Mahdi.
PC050221

The bunch who ran off with the Kettle. knocking on the door for water. I dont think the British were about to oblige but sent them "packing" instead. Serves them right. How do they expect their commander to go into battle without a "Cuppa".
