I'd like to get in, but the metal prices are a bit steep. |

Just the Perrys new AWI british I think |

You could also go with 15mm or 1/72 scale. Right now the only plastic 28mm would be the AWI British from Perrys. Great figures by way. In a pinch you could probably paint up a set as Continentals, but they are working on those too. |

Could always go large in plastic..

15mm – using Blue Moon, Peter Pig, Essex, Freikorps and Irregular Miniatures I use M&T without changing the ranges – works fine Troops based on 15x20mm bases and Officers on 5p pieces See link Ok – they are metal – but 30 for £12.00 GBP ain't bad |

I was thinking of doing it in 1/32 using armies in plastic, all the kings men plastic Indians & Barzso. Unfortunately most of the Barzso figures are OOP |

Some Barszo are OOP, some not. But EBAY is your friend. |

If you join the OG army plan you will find our 28mm metals very competitive with plastics. Also the Blue moon 15/18mm are very nice figures. We can supply buildings, forts,etc in both scales at reasonable prices and all made here in the USA !!!

If I were to do this,I would use 1/72 plastics-I've already got more figs than I'd actually need! |

Even without the discount you could do Old Glory reasonably. Bag of indians, bag of militia/settlers and a bag of regulars (split it in half and paint half french, half brit). about $100. USD |

Can't say enough about the Blue Moon 15mm. Great sculpts, great value. Keep up the good work Russ! |

1/72 figures by IMEX or Italeri will do perfectly. |

Yeah I'd go AWI with the Perry stuff if you're just diving in. Old Glory has some great models but you are required to buy too many models in a pack to make it practical for a skirmish game like M&T--at least for infantry. |
's motivation to paint Napoleonic ships returns!
