Suggested topics for Osprey to cover
persianfan247
Hi
These are topics are would personally like to see covered
The Armies of the Safavids
The Army of Nadir Shah
Zand and Qajar armies
prehaps those three could be grouped under one topic about Persian armies from 1500-1925
Also something about the Uzbek Khanate and its succesor states in Central Asia.
And finally something about Indian armies before the Mughal conquests and more detail on Indian armies during the Mughal period.

I suggested some of these ideas in the following post http://www.ospreypublishing.com/forum/16th_century/1049/ and I’m glad Osprey are working on a book to cover this period, although it’s a shame Osprey could not have done individual books. Still, I’m very excited by this title and can’t wait to see the colour plates. Medieval Indian armies covering the Sultanate of Delhi, Gupta & Maratha empires are much needed.

I fully support your suggestions.
A book about the saffavid dinasty is a must and will cover an important gap in the middle east history in the XVi and XVII centrury.
With respect to indian armies the cover of them in osprey is minimal. It would be fantastic if Osprey devoted some books to Indian subjects (Gupta, Chola, Kushana, Rajput, Delhi sultanat, Vijayanagara).
