The descendants of these regiments still survive in the armies of India and Pakistan today. As a guide to wargaming these fascinating and colorful conflicts this book provides detailed information on the organization and uniforms of both armies together with advice on how to build armies of model soldiers, and which rules are suitable to enable the enthusiast to bring these enthralling battles to the wargames table.
