ACW Gamer is now in the fig business! These look great and I like the idea of battle specific vignettes (of course they could be used generically). Great stuff! Check them out here – link

Any chance of a "size-comparison" image?

Purchase made. Looking forward to seeing more. Hopefully they'll come out with some figures wrapped around the idea of making units as well.

Nice, unique poses.

These look very interesting. I rather like the idea of vignettes, got enough rank and file, but no where near enough variety in command stands.

Boy, those sure do look nice! Should I jump into 28mm ACW? Hardly seem to have enough time to game with my 25mm Napoleonics, 28mm AWI, and 54mm WWII. But still…………

Yes dBerczerk, you should jump into 28mm ACW. With both feet. But, I a biased.

ACW Gamer: Size Comparison: "Ask and we shall…". excellent comparison image, many thanks, very considerate! Yes dBerczerk, you should jump into 28mm ACW. With both feet. But, I a biased. Already into 28mm ACW, but definitely room for more. All the ranges seem complementary and make for convincing ACW units. Well done!

I really like the new set! Can't wait to see what you will do next!

Hi, Bought the initial set,nice mix of enthusiastic and sedantry poses,unfortunately I found that good old SJ did not sit on his mount too well and had to do a bit of cutting and filing for him to do so. Figures are nice,though on the slimmer side compared to some other manufacturers. G

Grognard, Thank you for the kind words. I will work to fix the mounting problem in future releases. The figures are slimmer, but I was hoping to catch more of the look of ACW soldiers that you see in photographs. I still believe they work will with many other manufacturers. ACW Gamer
