Situated on a pestilence ridden strip of swamp jungle on West Africa's slave coast, the black African state of Dahomey maintained a standing army of 12,000 warriors, the most distinctive feature of which was their use of women as the elite shock troops of the army - they were known as "Amazons".

      These figures, sculpted by Mike Owen, faithfully represent one of the smallest, yet most remakable, military organisations in colonial history. Of course the period wouldn't be worth wargaming if the Dahomey's redoubtable enemies, the French Foreign Legion, were not included. It was the Legions unenviable job to quell the "Unleashed Demons"!
