Specifically, I'm looking at their Desert Italians and hoping that Battle Honors and some Warlord (probably just Brixia and Solothrun teams) might be compatible. Any thoughts on how mix able these lines are? Thanks!

i believe that the Perry WWII Eastern Desert range was made with fitting the 1/5six scale vehicles in mind, though this is not s direct quote from either of the Perry brothers as far as I know. Thus they are smaller and more slender then most of the Perry offerings. Darrell. Just Add Water II Blog (Painting etc):

I have Perry and Warlord Italians and they are very compatible. The Warlord figs are by Richard Ansell and quite slim and realistically proportioned, similar to the Perrys. The Solothurn and Brixia 45mm teams are lovely models and well worth getting. I posted some comparison shots at:
link I don't have any Battle Honours Italians (website totally lacking details or pictures of models means I haven't been tempted to order), but I have had a close look at some at a game at a show and they are slim; I think they'd be a very good match for Perry and Warlord. |
