The Soweiter League's National Zoological Garden latest acquisition - wishing you a Hippo New Year!
The Hesse-Pfeffernusse Pfreikorps, led by Col. von Nussbaum, ably assisted by a grizzled old sargeant. (Standard bearer is off in the "wings" awaiting a flag)
Also from Hesse-Pfeffernusse, General Oscar von Pfreidegg

The earth trembles beneath the impact of the Soweiter Hippo - a relative of the Xerxes Rhino, one assumes?
Very nicely painted figures . . . and the hippo will serve double duty for Colonials!

Figures are fatastic but I fear my favourite is the hippo...

p.s Karl x11 of Sweden tried to domesticate/utilise elk as steeds of war- to no avail sadly. However it might work in the soweiter league...
A fearsome beast indeed, and a fine body of men. The blue uniforms look very nice.
Apparently the hippopotamus has the worst breath of any animal on Earth. I'd count it as a canister charge against any attacker. ;)
like the Friekorps - love the hippo.
