Throughout their history, the reputation of Indian Mountain Batteries was enhanced by the fact that they were officered by the very best the Royal Artillery had to offer. Such talented men competed to join because a tour in an Indian Mountain Battery, unlike other branches of artillery, virtually guaranteed seeing active service. Indian officers (VCO's) and other ranks were also the best available, as the relatively small number of batteries and their role as the only Indian artillery meant that there was always a surplus of volunteers, and this in turn meant that only the highest quality of recruit was accepted.

Although light in calibre, the guns of Mountain Batteries were designed to be disassembled and transported by pack mule in up to eight loads for use in terrain that would otherwise be impossible to traverse with larger and more conventional artillery.

The Guards fought in every major British campaign on the continent during the Napoleonic Wars. They carved their place in history under commanders such as Sir John Moore and Wellington from Corunna and Talavera during the Peninsula War to their legendary defence of the Chateau of Hougoumont throughout the battle of Waterloo.

The Indian Army, 90mm Model Soldiers

Fråga mig inte varför den kallas Probyns horse, för så mycket till kuse verkar det inte vara!

Om jag inte fattat det fel skulle de brittiska fotgardisterna passa bra med figurerna jag fick av min jobbarkompis.

En Burra Sahib i all ära, men jag är mer sugen på Bill Brown och de laglösa.
Du verkar ju ha tumme med firman. Kan du inte bilda lobbygrupp?

Bill från Cromptons böcker? Är det de du vill att jag ska lobba för?
Jag kan ju alltid framföra önskemål.

Högst densamme! Gärna bonden Jenks också, i dioramasyfte.

Får väl se vad jag kan göra åt saken. Jag antar att 54mm är lämpligaste skalan, eller hade du tänkt dig nån annan skala?

Håkan

Får man måttbeställa?

Jag är glad åt vad jag än kan få, liksom.
