From DaveD - Sudan - Egyptian Camel Corps - 425 points

Its about time we had a decent amount of camels - so its a  proper Sudan camel post for you this week. This is one of the more unusual units for the collection.  It was first raised as an irregular unit in 1883. it was composed of Egyptian and Sudanese soldiers and  fought in the Gordon relief expedition and fought right through the period and upto the first world war.

The figures are by Old Glory - overall they are nice figures - with the usual few OG oddball poses - some are looking 180 degrees away from where thier weapon is pointed - lets hope that is not an indicator of table prowess! But they are nice and characterful once done.

So here we have 24 mounted Camel Corps

a home made flag done for these too - i converted the standard bearer from a rifleman

Plus 24 dismounted close order. 6 skirmishers , plus 3 mounted officers for the upcoming Egyptian and Sudanese battalions that are on the table

27 mounted = 270 points
30 foot = 150 points
total = 420 points

Now then - someone challenged me to camel painting duel - well I think my eye is in now!

Look out everyone Dave's back to his paintbomb best!!!
Beautiful work Comrade, what more can I say??? I love the 2 skirmish bases bases, they do look pretty cool. I think we need a pic of the whole army, just to see what you've got.

As for the points it's as you said a combined 420 points, but I'm adding another 5 points for the home made flag and just because of the awesomeness of this post!!
