This marching pose seems to really be a theme at Strelets. I like it,but I wonder how they're selling?

They are still to be released, but my head tells me that wargamers use a lot of marching poses

Again only one standard bearer? When will they get it that some nationalities carried two flags per unit! Same with Union ACW!

Mind you, easy enough to use the HaT box of British command which has four in it. And there are only 40 men in the box, so the flags per figure ratio is already a bit heavy.

And the later Italeri sets that used three identical sprues, or the Waterloo 1815 sets with four identical, suffered from the reverse – too many standards.

Me, I will but a few extra boxes anyway, so with the HaT boxes, and the odd metal extra figure, I will be ok

Maybe there will be three or four sprues, so three or four flags?

Those look really good, and they are not the usual chunky Strelets style.

Can you believe it, we have this good looking set from Strelets, Redbox have suddenly learned to make an occasionally decent set, and all these marching figures everywhere. We are truly in a Golden Age!

Paul, Strelets have said that they plan 40 foot and 4 command, o no, only one flag per box. But I like the HaT flag bearers better anyway as they come with just the pole – looks like I will need to cut the Strelets plastic away before going paper
