Look like an excellent (but limited) range. How do they scale out compared to other ranges? Also, what other ranges would complement them? |

These are excellent figures, I have dozens. First got them for Irish War of Independence, then I moved them into my Very British Civil War Collection. They fit in fine with most notable 28mm ranges, eg. Bolt Action, Foundry, Old Glory,etc. Not really so limited, how many variations do you need for IWI. Add in WWI figs for the Brits. I started doing IWI with Airfix figures in the 70s with Leo Cronin rules and kept getting bigger figs as scales increased and now am happy with the Footsore ones. |

Do you still use the Leo Cronin rules? |

EssPee, I moved on to more combat orientated rules, Leo's game had much role playing which the local club did not care for. Now use "Flying Lead." By the way here is a link to the Footsore IWI figs and VBCW which can be used too.

That is understandable it is a quirky set of rules… which seemingly existed in a few versions. Will have to try it with Flying Lead myself. |
