Does anyone know what the contents are of some of GMB's 15mm ACW flag sets? (Seen here: link )

I've emailed Grahame, but didn't get a response (he was responsive to earlier questions, so I'm guessing something came up or my message fell afoul of a spam filter). I'm itching to put in an order so I can get these ready by July 2nd, so I thought I'd ask here.

Anyway, I'm trying to figure out which flags I need to do Little Round Top; i.e., Vincent's Brigade (20th Maine, 83rd Pa., 44 N.Y., and 16th Mich.) and the Alabama and Texas regiments from Laws and Robertson's Brigades (4th, 15th, 47th, and 48th Ala.; 4th and 5th Tex.).

I'm particulary having trouble working out the differences between some of the Union sets.

There are two sets of "U.S. Army Regulation colours(use for regulars and volunteers." Does anyone know what the difference is between the two, and which set would be more appropriate for Gettysburg?

Similarly, there are two sets for New York State Volunteers--what's the difference, and which would be better for the 44th?

Also, I can't tell if the various state flag sets contain only Regimental flags, or also include National flags. I.e., if I buy the Maine Volunteers set, do I also need to buy one of the "U.S. Army Regulation" sets to get the national colors?

Any advice is greaty appreciated!!

Thanks!

You will have to order them seperatly and the qaulity is well worth your money. He had them to my door here in the US in 10 or less days. The only other time I have had faster service provided from the UK is thrugh an ebay purchase with shipping deadlines and the slow isnt anything personal, thats just how it is over thier,so I was rather pleased.
