Hi, I have just been looking at the beautiful ECW range produced by Empress miniatures. I am contemplteing getting some but would like to know what other ranges of ECW figures they fit in best with, I currently have a large amount of both Renegade and Warlord games ECW figures but due to their incompatability was considering putting one of them on the exchange board. I think the the deciding factor will be which one dosen't fit with the Empress miniatures figs. Anyway I will be grateful for any advice, all the best…CH. |

I think they will fit best with the Warlord figures. Renegade's figures are the largest I have ever seen. Not sure if you can get to this (it's on Facebook), but this is a comparison shot of Empress and Warlord shotte: link NB, I am their US agent, but I'm also a client :-) I am collecting figures for Hopton vs. Waller. So if you contact them, be sure to badger them for Cuirassiers and Dragoons! Steve |

my ECW opponent uses empress with his warlord figs. they are taller, but not in a jarring way. the units looked great to me. you could put them in their own units if you really didn't like the height variation. the only reason I don't have any mixed with my warlord stuff, is that empress doesn't have Covenenters yet. |

I happily mix Warlord, Renegade, Redoubt and Old Glory figures. I don't see why you say that Warlord and Renegade are not compatible. I think they are all compatible. The Empress figures look very nice. Maybe a bit thinner and taller. I'd use them in a game with the other brands without hesitation. Probably in their own separate units as suggested by StCrispin. |

I am collecting figures for Hopton vs. Waller. Hopton, my main ECW man… Cheers,

Empress ECW fits well with TAG's ECW/TYW miniatures too. Very close in most regards to both quality and historical accuracy. ilodic. |

Hi chaps, thank you all very much for some very useful feedback. I think I will now put the Renegade figures on the exchange board and the order some Empress goodies. Thanks again…CH. |
