Can you mix and match models in the same unit? I want to expand my French division made up of Napoleon at War models but the glacial pace of releases has me looking at Blue Moon's range. Are they similar in size? Thanks! |

Here is a link to an earlier review about this line. If I remember right, they are larger that Blue Moon and all the other 18mm lines. TMP link |

I've still never seen a decent photographic review of the Napoleon at War miniatures, or seen them side by side with other ranges. It would be really nice to see these "in the flesh". |

Not a review per se – but lots of painted figures here: link |

I've compared the Man at War figures to others and they are easily 20mm figures. Way too big to mix with 15mm or 18mm figures. Even AB figures are smaller. |

I accidentally bought some Napoleon at War from an Ebayer who described them as "Fantassin" (I think same company do make them). They are nice figures but definitely close to the Newline 20 mm figures that I have. They tower over my AB and "proper" Fantassin/Warmodelling. If you want to expand your forces, could do worse than take a look at the Newline 20 mm. link |

NaW are NOT the same as Warmodelling/Fantassin. They just both come from Spain is all. And yes, they are a medium sized 20mm figure. I bought a pack and they never even got primed as they make all my 15s and 18s look puny. |

I have some Warmodelling/Fantassin Austrian that are HUGE while others from the same pack are a closer size to AB. It's no wonder there is confusion when there is scale creep even in the same packet of miniatures. |
