I'm looking to put together a small Westphalian force together to oppose my Perry Russians for skirmish games. I'm very new to Napoleonics so I want to ask for a learned opinion. Can I use figures from the Perry French range as Westphalians? From what I have read the uniforms are similar. I know that Elite and Steve Barber make Westphalian figures but I have never seen them or know if they would mix with Perrys. I want my opposing armies to look similar in size and sculpting. Thanks! |

Steve Barber Westphalians mix perfectly. |

The newest Steve Barber figures of Westphalians in campaign dress look very good and are compatible with Perry. They wear the "older uniform with round cuffs and no epaulettes for fusiliers yet. This uniform was probably still worn in the 1812 campaign. (I just have a regiment on my table and they look nice) Alternatively if you want the "new" type uniform where everyone has epaulettes, just use French (Perry) grenadiers, they look the part. |
