Re: One set and why

Strelets
Gentlemen,

a thread above about Anglo-Boer war makes us wonder if a further set or two, devoted to this subject, can be of interest to you.
The first one popping into mind is a Boar artillery set.

Best regards,

Strelets

Excellent idea! I'd love to see this done in Terracotta just like the Foot and Horse Boers. Excellent sets, both! Please count me in. How about, what's it called - "Big Bertha", or "Long Tom?" But soft plastic, please. Much like the Crimean Russian cannon in silver (and done for British in Terracotta). That's a great set and I've bought at least 15 boxes in Silver and another 4 in Terracotta. Good price, too. But I personally don't have any hard plastic kits. "Simple is best." I love the Soft Plastic Hobby. :-)

Artillery/Heavy weapons for both sides, pom pom`s for example were used by both sides, another set of infantry for both sides would not be amiss, the British in slouch hats for example, far more common than sun helmets with both Brits and commonwealth troops as the war progressed. The Boers again could just be better, as infantry it was usually in a defensive roll and a second set could more accurately depict that.Transport, wagons and carts for both sides. Artillery limbers and crew, more uses than the Boer war, Afghanistan and the Sudan for example.
