Picked up a box of these Tirailleurs Sénégalais from Warlord Games some time ago for my French Army.
Tirailleurs means skirmishers or rifles and were French Imperial colonial troops from sub-Saharan Africa. They fought bravely for France in both WWI and WWII, where they were usually murdered when captured by the German Army as examples of an 'inferior' people.
These are great models, made from white metal, that add a bit o' colour to a French army. They cost a princely fifteen of our English Pounds.
