GAPS31 EIC Irregular Cavalry

These products are not advisable for unders 14 years old unless supervised by an adult.

EIC Irregular Cavalry sowars in alkaluks, at the halt with swords at the shoulder. Slung matchlocks. 6 riders & 6 standing horses.

Also suits Shah Shoojah's 2nd Irregular Cavalry (Anderson's Horse) in the Afghan Campaign. The dress of the regiment seems not to be recorded anywhere. However, Dr Brydon, renowned as the 'sole survivor' of the Retreat from Kabul refers in one of his accounts to mistaking a group of horsemen in red for 'our irregular cavalry'. Since the only other irregular regiments with the force were clad in yellow alkaluks, we have taken his remark to be an allusion to Anderson's Horse. The use of green as the contrasting regimental colour is entirely conjectural (and quite pretty!). Blue and yellow would also be good guesses if you fancy something different to this.
