Can the WGF / Warlord WSS figures be used for the FIW period? |

French infantry set would be passable (I know they are the same figures in each box) although they may need new hairstyles. They will look a little old fashioned and maybe too boat-fresh european for the forests though. |

They would work perfectly for Queen Anne's War (War of Spanish Succession in North America). They are a little archaic for FIW but what the heck, if you like the figures, just squint a little and they will be okay. |

Agreed – with colonial wars you get a lot of leeway! |

Thank you for the responses! I was thinking the WGF/Warlord figures might be passable for some French units in the FIW. |

Why not just get the Warlord FIW figures.
