Bring New The Queen’s Own To Empress’ First Sikh War

May 14, 2025 by brennon

If you're looking to dive into some of the alternative conflicts from history, then you can't go too far wrong when it comes to the offerings from Empress Miniatures. For example, if you want to try out the First Sikh War (or the Second), you might want to get The Queen's Own, the 50th Regiment of Foot.

As explained by Empress Miniatures, they actively participated in both wars and in particular the Gwalior Campaign of 1843, which came just before the First Sikh War. You will also find them present at the Battles of Mudki, Ferozeshah, Aliwal, and Sobraon. A nice set of miniatures, as always, sculpted with plenty of detail for those wanting to get stuck in.

There are options for a small selection of these troops as well as a full regiment if you'd like. The full unit comes with two Officers, one Drummer, two Ensigns, a Sgt Major, two Sergeants and your Flank Company Privates.

All of these miniatures would be great for covering the First Sikh War (1845-1846) and you can also use them in the Second Sikh War (1848-1849). Look up the Battle of Chillianwallah if you want to find out more about them!

Are you going to be getting your hands on these new miniatures?
