Head To The Desert With Unfeasibly’s New Tuareg
August 7, 2015 by brennon
Unfeasibly Miniatures have bolstered the ranks of their Tuareg range which will be fighting against the French Foreign Legion. In addition to new sets for them the Foreign Legion did get itself another big gun, the De Bange Mountain Gun...
Tuareg Reinforcements
First up we have the Tuareg Command below who are presented in their traditional deep blue clothing. This set represents a Prince on the back of the Camel and an Elder on foot pointing the way.
I think this is a really nice set and I like that it comes with another relaxing camel.
As well as that Command pack they have put together two units of cavalry, the Mounted Tuareg I and the Mounted Tuareg II.
Armed with rifles they will have some ranged firepower but in addition they have more traditional spears and shields when things get up close and personal.
Big Guns
On the French Foreign Legion side of things they have just got themselves a rather nice 80mm 'De Bange' Mountain Gun which was a lightweight piece of kit that fired high explosive rounds. Not bad to have in your arsenal...
Within the kit you get the four crew, the gun and some additional extras like the ammo supply and some cleaning rods to put on the bases showing them in action.
Have you ever fought battles during this period of history?
Let us know below!

Yep like these even if I don’t collect or game this period atm.
About a hundred years ago, but using Airfix minis! These are beautiful and very dynamic – i’ll check these out.
It’s not a period that’s on my shopping list but those are fantastic!
Can’t help but see Peter O’Toole: “A thousand Arabs means a thousand knives, delivered anywhere day or night. It means a thousand camels. That means a thousand packs of high explosives and a thousand crack rifles. We can cross Arabia while Johnny Turk is still turning round, and smash his railways. And while he’s mending them, I’ll smash them somewhere else. In thirteen weeks, I can have Arabia in chaos.”
