Looking at the product codes for 10mm ACW and from the previous threads here, I know all the info needed for the command and infantry strips.
But information what to buy to build artillery stands is lacking. Can someone give me an idea of what what codes I need to pick-up? When I look at them on the website it appears the only the crews come in the pack and the is mo mention of the guns. Do I need to buy them separate? |

The gun packs are ACW-121 and ACW122. link |

That what I needed to know. In addition the Cav. pack list 30 figs.
Is this 15 riders and 15 horses? |

It's 30 riders and 30 horses. Here's my attempt with their mounted cav. link |

I've seen your blog before, Scott. Nice work! While you're answering questions (heh), the crews for the above gun packs are ACW-114 and 115 (Confederate and Union Arty Crews). I also saw ACW-123 Limbers and Crews (not army specific). Are those crew somehow different (mounted/seated)? |

There you've got me. I don't have any of the limbers yet. I would guess that "crews" there refers to the limber crews, not gun crews. |

The crews that come with the limber pack consist of two riders seated for the limber caisson and riders for the draft horses. |

Thanks Scott and Jon! I just ordered my first OG 10mm ACW a few days ago, just to test the waters. I've been considering ACW minis (in various scales) for years but have never taken the plunge. I just picked up an OG Army membership, however, so… *splash* |

I think you'll like the figures. Were I starting my ACW armies all over again, I'd definitely go with Old Glory 10mm for my grand tactical games. |
| JonFreitag | 17 Nov 2009 7:11 a.m. PST |
I agree with Scott. The Old Glory 10mm ACW range is very nice. With five foot per base, painting/basing is made easier and the figures look great en masse. |

Thank you very much guys.
I too am getting into 10mm ACW. All my past 10's have been Pendraken minis for WM Ancients.
I'd played Fire & Fury in 15mm back in 92 and have just recently found my rulebook. So I started thinking… with my love of this scale and with those rules I should be able to build something pretty. |
