DBA 15-19K Boxer Rebellion - Boxers


Inspired by 55 Days at Peking.... Oh Charlton Heston again! Here's our Boxer Army. Looking at the DBA 1500-1900 Lists, the Boxer Rebellion doesn't show. However, I still think the period can be covered by the extensions.

We've stuck with a 24 element army to face the upcoming '12 base Major Powers Army'. Mainly comprising of 'Fanatics', we've also allowed Psiloi, Jagers for some sniping firepower & a Cannon element (meant to represent older artillery pieces).

Incidentally the BBC ran a cracking program in their TIMEWATCH series on the Boxer Rebellion. A much more 'truthful' version of events.
However you can't view the program on BBC iPlayer anymore. Here's the link to the Beeb's Timewatch site for a preview http://www.bbc.co.uk/timewatch/
We still love the movie though!!!!

1-3x Jagers (3); 1-3x Psiloi (3); 17-22x Fanatics (3);
