Must admit that I prefer my Indians to be from the P&S/H&M eras, but those are very good.

The only addition I would make is if someone made Maiden Guard.

Nice job there, Fredd.

A friend had a "Wellington In India" Indian army in 15mm (I think he used a mix of Dixon/Two Dragons) and he overcame the "hordes of the things" and "irregularity of formation" problems by placing figures unevenly around the front and sides of the base and then covered the centre and rear with a cotton wool dust cloud. Actually looked quite effective.

That looks rather impressive, Fred, and annoyingly inspirational.

Hmmmmm?
