Anyone had experience of how these mix?
Interested in building HOTT forces with Pendraken figs (5 minis x 20x40mm base) and a Kallistra command figure.
Idea's to eventually expand by adding two more 5-7figure bases per unit for use as Warmaster units.
Cheers

YMMV, but the Kallistra 10mms I've seen are much bigger than Pendrakens. I wouldn't even use them in same game. Dennis |

In my experience, Kallistra are the largest of the 10mm ranges (really 12++) whereas Pendraken are true 10's. I don't see that as a good mix. |

Any one have any idea which manufacturer makes the next largest figs. I'm in the process of building 4 small armies to use with T Gore's Medieval Warfare rules, I can get get the figs for 3 from Kallistra but they don't do Byzantines.
Old Glory and Magister Militum do which are the largest. Ta. |

Magister Militum should be a decent size match for Kallistra |

Magister may be closest in height but probably not mass. You may want to approach Kallistra, as they are ever exapnading their ranges and Byzantines may be something they would like to do. |

If your talking about the fantasy figures then in most cases they match (and in some instances are the same figures, the Pendraken's being singles, the Kallistra being on strips).
For the historicals though I hear the Kallistra ones are noticably bigger; certainly an example I've seen of the Kallistra Aurthurians and the Pendraken Late Romans (sculpted by me), do not match in height at all. |

The Kallistra command packs match well with Pendrakens fantasy ranges.
In fact that's exactlly how I use them :) |

Clibinarium is talking about these two pics I took time ago:

As you see, there is a difference. |

Yep those are exactly the photographs I was thinking of. |
