Deetails On The Rocks - Indian Mutiny


In a rocky part of India, 1857...


Mutineers mass...


And meet British regiments proudly donning their most favourite shakos...


Well Drilled Mutineer Artillery (we were playing The Men Who Would Be Kings, and this unit's leader rolled up "Bullet Proof Bumbler", which is probably one of the worst Traits an Artillery unit could possibly be burdened with!  But fun though, and even managed to hit something!)


Mid-point in the battle...


Badmashes (Tribal Inf. with the fierce upgrade) about to charge the British Irregular cavalry...


British Irregular Cavalry in their irregular dress - but, ahhh, beautiful Deetails cavalry!  How I love Deetails horses and the mounted poses!!


Unfortunately, they didn't survive...


But the British eventually won.  I have yet to have a Non-Regular force win a game of The Men Who Would Be Kings.  Seems fitting, though.  Great game and very enjoyable rules.

Scots on (and by) The Rocks...
