Mustering the Punitive Expedition and 3d Printed Huts

 Here is my expedition, mustered for my Darkest Africa Punitive Expedition solo campaign.  I have decided for the first time out, I will be using The Men Who Would Be Kings with the "Skirmish Kings" option, basically half-sized units.

I am doing that so I can ease into the rules and play on my table in it's "small" configuration of 40" square.  My field force will consist of 24 points.  Troops will be pulled from regulars from the Zamunda Field Force, along with colonial volunteers and some locally raised askari to guard the baggage.

Here is the expedition in all its glory, including the supply train:



The force consists of:

  • 3 x Regular Infantry from the Zamunda Frontier Force
    • Speed: 6"
    • Firing: 5+ / Obsolete Rifles
    • Fighting: 5+
    • Discipline: +1
    • May form close order and volley fire
  • 1 x Unit of colonial volunteers / hunters (Irregular Infantry with Field Craft)
    • Speed: 6"
    • Firing: 4+ (Sharpshooters) / Modern Rifles
    • Fighting: 6
    • Discipline: +1 (Veterans)
  • Supply train: I know it should be much larger, but I only have 5 porters painted...
I will post the opposition next.  Meanwhile, I have printed up some huts from Thingieverse here for villages.  They are being painted now but here is what the raw prints look like.  Enjoy!
