Cheers

Al,
The figures seem very...Little Legionesque. Any relation between the two companies?

I have no idea, Mike. RD went out of business about 5 years ago, and I do not know how long Mike Norris (LL) has been in business

I love camel pictures. Thanks guys.

Has everyone seen the new Regal camel corps figures? I really like them, and I think they would mix well with Trophy or Little Legion. They come in red tunics, the more accurate grey, or blue for Royal artillery.

Cheers,
Sam

The fresh supply of water was vital to the advance of the Nile Expedition in their ill-fated attempt to relieve General Gordon at Khartoum
Here members of the Mounted Infantry, drawn from the ranks of the Grenadier Guards, occupy a desert well and await the arrival of the Camel Corps

Grenadier Guards Officer meets Officers from the Life Guards and Naval Brigade at the same time reloading his pistol

The advance party of the Camel Corps arrive to refill their water bags
