Jamesonsafari17 Sep 2013 3:32 a.m. PST

Blue Moon

Jamesonsafari17 Sep 2013 3:32 a.m. PST

MINIFIGs also did a very nice range in 15mm.

Martin Rapier17 Sep 2013 4:22 a.m. PST

The bulk of my WW1 figures are Peter Pig, with some Essex, Minifigs, Irregular and QRF (guns) stuff thrown in.

The Jackson Gamers have extensive reviews with many photos on their RCW pages here: link

Peter Pig is awesome and works well with Minifigs. Word of caution on Blue Moon….they are 18mm and therefore noticeably larger than PP and Minifig. They are nice but I wouldn't mix Blue Moon with PP and Minifig. But that's a personal preference.

Mirosav17 Sep 2013 6:49 a.m. PST

I used Peter Pig and Minifigs. Irregular have some but they tend to be larger, especially the cavalry.

Martin Rapier17 Sep 2013 8:11 a.m. PST

Irregular do however make all sorts of weird and wacky artillery pieces, including medium and heavy guns.

Sundance17 Sep 2013 8:16 a.m. PST

Mine are all Peter Pig.

Broglie17 Sep 2013 8:36 a.m. PST

Another vote for Peter Pig although there are some annoying gaps in the ranges.

ChargeSir17 Sep 2013 12:20 p.m. PST

I add my vote for Peter Pig and also irregular artillery highly recommended.

thanks guys a appreciate the feed back ill check them out. so does anyone know where you can find 15mm flag transfers ? for WW! and RCW

Abwehrschlacht17 Sep 2013 1:52 p.m. PST

Peter Pig and QRF for me!

mghFond17 Sep 2013 2:03 p.m. PST

Peter Pig for me too, I have a RussoPolish War collection using almost all PP.

Much as I love Blue Moon, not sure you could get much out of their current stuff for RCW though. They have late war Americans, Brits, and French then late war Germans. Not a Russian in sight.

BunJen17 Sep 2013 3:16 p.m. PST

Cisco,

Peter Pig are great my armies are both PP.

I am thinking of selling hem if you fancy a ready to play collection?

KCisco449117 Sep 2013 6:22 p.m. PST

Yeah I might give buying them some thought. Are they ww1 or RCW minis ? And private message me your email so I can see some pics.

James Wood17 Sep 2013 7:47 p.m. PST

Minifigs, QRF, Peter Pig,

artaxerxes18 Sep 2013 3:08 a.m. PST

If it's RCW, specifically, then the Pig rules.

nazrat18 Sep 2013 8:39 a.m. PST

I would go with Blue Moon. The selection is incredible, and they have said they will be doing early war soon.

KCisco449118 Sep 2013 11:13 a.m. PST

So I am new to ww1 wargaming what rules are out that work good for 15mm company level battles for ww1 if any. Or would I be better making some mods to fow and playing that way ?

monk2002uk19 Sep 2013 9:58 a.m. PST

FoW already has a WW1 variant. I don't play FoW so can't comment on how it plays but there is a dedicated Yahoo Group – FOW 1918.

do you have a link for there page id like to check that out.

KCisco449120 Sep 2013 4:13 a.m. PST

I think those new soviet winter strelkovy guys from battlefront with the pointy hats would work as reds what do you guys think?

Ned Ludd21 Sep 2013 9:48 a.m. PST

I was thinking exactly the same about the new flames of war figures. And the release has set me to looking at 15mm RCW again. Lardies rules have a set for RCW but I am going to use a varient of the If the Lord Spares Us set of rules.
