Fearsome opponents down the ages…
During the height of the 19th-century Great Game, Afghanistan became a key zone of conflict between the British and Russian Empires. British soldiers found themselves unprepared for the rugged terrain and the sheer determination of the Afghan warriors defending their homeland.
This set of 40 28mm plastic figures depicts those warriors in dynamic poses and equipped with an array of period-appropriate weapons: from curved pulwar blades and khyber knives to jezails, muskets, and even Martini-Henry rifles. Whether building large tribal forces, skirmish bands, or representing irregulars in more modern scenarios, this kit delivers unmatched versatility.
Figures are supplied unpainted and require assembly. Contents may vary slightly from photos.
