My submission this week is a group of British Regulars for the French & Indian War. These 28mm figures are from Warlord Games.
I thought this box was a bit odd, as there is a full 1/3 of the figures without firearms. Seemed rather odd having a guy with a spear and one with a halberd.
Otherwise they're very nice figs.
That should be 18 28mm figs (5 points each) = 90 points
Very nice, colourful figures with great flags and basing. I like the command group with the drummer and officer. It does seem a bit odd that there is a lack of muskets- can anyone advise?

Very nice redcoats Scott. The half pike and halberd were carried by NCOs and officers, but in North America were often swapped for muskets. The half pike was useful keeping grunts in line, and their muskets at the right height. The halberd was a relic from the Pike and Shotte era when halbadards were carried by elite troops.
ReplyDeleteFascinating- thanks, Peter!

Oh man, great work! I am working on some of these too, and have a similar bonkers experience with the packaging - Warlord did not include any extra arms for the command figures.
ReplyDeleteIt is 18 months later, and they still haven't got it sorted :(
Seems like a pretty normal ratio of management to workers!
