So which Napoleonic Theatre/Campaign has the most 28mm plastic sets supporting it. |

I would say The 100 Days with 8 boxed sets appropriate to the campaign from the Perrys, 6 from Warlord and 9 from Victrix (at a quick glance). |

100 days or Peninsula. Warlord even has plastic Portuguese. |

My knowledge of Napoleonics is scant. I am well versed with the Peninusula, please educate me on the 100 days. |

100 is Waterloo time frame |

Sounds like someone is trying to be frugal…I don't blame you. BTW, Perry's; is there going to be a U.S. distributor, because AoW's "work in progress website" seems to be finished? Also, when are you going to release Russian Uhlans…everything is there but that. Just curious |

Buy direct from the Perrys. Great service and with the currency exchange the dollar buys a bit more. They end up costing less than what AoW was charging for them. |

45thdiv, true. I checked the exchange rate not too long ago, about .7 pounds to the U.S. dollar, compared to about .62 to the dollar not too long ago, and "we" avoid the VAT tax, which got me thinking about ordering from other British Miniature Companies as well. I have never ordered directly, and the shipping is 25%, plus they state it might take weeks. The War Store was nice when they had things in stock, but even AoW rarely had most things in stock, Napoleonic era. (Sorry to highjack the thread, but sometimes questions get answered this way.) Answer to the question about most plastics, the theater in whichever the British overpowered the French. |

You can get Perry's from thewarstore.com I've always had great service from them. |

Agree, by direct from the Perry's. In addition to the exchange rate being favorable orders over 200 pounds ship free (I'm in the US and did get free ship). So just save up or go in with some buddies. Oh, it does not mention the free shipping under "shipping" but can be found under their FAQ section btw. :-) link |

I have to agree that the 100 days and the Peninsula have the most plastic supporting it. This especially true because you can get British artillery and cavalry, and the only "allied" cavalry we are likely to see in the near future are British heavy. |
