Thanks for the recommendation for "Sepoy": I have tried to order a copy from Caliver Books who used to publish and wait to see what will happen as they are no longer listed.

That is kind of you but looking at how many books I have on the Mutiny I think I had better stick: I don't think I could cope with all of the figures I would need for the Peninsula War although it is very tempting unless there is to be a long delay in supplying the Mutiny figures.   There is just far too much temptation!

If not then you might try TREBIAN at the blog WARGAMING FOR GROWN-UPS, I think he was the author.  [Note that I am suggesting them rather than recommending them as I have never played them but they seemed to have been well thought of at the time!]

The current British line have rockets.  Would those work?
