The two sword armed figures are in the front. The one on the left appears to be similar to MiniFigs in stature but is missing all the usual MiniFigs markings. He may be a Frontier or Falcon figure. The figure on the right with the flowing cape had some indecipherable markings on the bottom. I have no idea from which manufacturer he came.

New Native Unit - Ral Partha Arabs
Yesterday I completed the second of four new native units for the game I will be running at Bayou Wars later in June. It is composed of 18 vintage Ral Partha Arab type figures armed with spears and two others who are armed with swords. These were easy to paint. I used white, cream, camel, and suede acrylic colors for the robes and turbans. The skin was painted spice brown to simulate a tanned Middle Eastern/Afghan look.

Very nice! Sometimes a simple palette of colors works like a charm.
Nice indeed!
Now, what about, as an experiment, try Fort Khalaam by the 18th C.? A Carpania or Courland expedition in Sudan...
Jean-Louis,
That may be on the horizon sometime in the future. I've been considering expanding into the Mediterranean littoral.
