A bit of a break from Medievals....lots of red and white colonials...maybe it´s got something to do with having seen lots of people dressed in a similar fashion lately ...yo ho ho.
I´ve been
toying with the idea of making a colonial army for a while now, but got my finger out after seeing these
gatling guns and looking jealosly at
Duncan´s Blog

Heliograph and Telescope that come with the Gatling gun set. I´ve based them seperately so they can be used as signallers or spotters for the artillery.
