Hi, I'm mainly into 15mm but have an interest in going 6mm for any new periods. Does anybody have a list of the manufacturers of 5/6mm Napoleonics? Other newbies would also be interested. |

Heroics & Ros
Baccus
Adler there may be more … |

Someone also does 5/6mm laser-cut wooden figure blocks. At least I'm pretty sure it's 5/6mm… |

I have Adler, Boki and Baccus. Some Baccus are smaller. The Irregular and H&R are smoller.
If you want to see examples of comparison visit my website. I have painted more than 5,000 miniatures.

I can confirm GHQ and Microworld don't do Napoleonics in 6mm. |

@ boywundyrx-yes, they are nominally 6mm, but manufacturer says they are really 8/9mm- probably similar to Adler in size? Saw them at the Alumwell show earlier this year, They seem to paint up very nicely, but a little too angular for my taste. link |

Since you specifically listed Napoleonics 5/6mm the only ones I am aware of are as follows.
Baccus (Large selection excellent sculpts)
Adler (Large selection excellent sculpts)
Boki (only Austrians and Russians so far)
Irregular (smaller sculpts then those listed above and blobby but look decent once painted)
Heroics and Ros (true 5mm out of scale with others but nice sculpts and a large range)
I have never ordered from Boki but Irregular, Baccus, Adler and Heroics and Ros all give excellent customer service.
I personnaly use both Baccus and Adler but in separate units. They are all reasonably priced but Heroics and Ros are the least expensive if you are super budget conscious. |

Sadly no American distributors though. Ordering everything from England isn't cheap and somewhat prohibitive. |

Well not sure about the cost of ordering from across the pond being 'prohibitive' or not. If your buying through a distributor your going to be paying a bit extra anyhow and US mail costs pretty high as well. I'd do some arithmetic if I was you specially with the current strength of the dollar.
