The reason I ask is because I plan to upgrade my old AWI and I'm not sure yet what exactly I need for that. In total there are over 150 useable figures, plus extras for markers, etc. email me at Fire-at-Will@live.co.uk if you are interested Fire at Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08816572506887450180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615782020735321095.post-2426617692534495232018-02-04T19:36:29.582+00:002018-02-04T19:36:29.582+00:00Yes.

However, the Airfix WA are about 22mm, and the other ranges vary from 23.5 to 25mm. The "Accurate" figures may do, as they're 23mm. If I thin my bases to 1mm I might get away with it.<br /><br />Plan A is still sponge as many WA figures as I can off my friends and colleagues.Trebianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02221916804339000102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615782020735321095.post-39787642222782298912018-02-04T18:22:53.648+00:002018-02-04T18:22:53.648+00:00From here http://www.plasticsoldierreview.com/Peri...From here http://www.plasticsoldierreview.com/Periods.aspx I see there are more figures for AWI and SYW than I was aware of.Nigel Druryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07635742503102210394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615782020735321095.post-17442248087637590952018-02-04T14:50:30.953+00:002018-02-04T14:50:30.953+00:00Nige

If it turns out I can't get my hands on enough of the originals I may have to resort to the tall figures on thin bases ploy, but not yet.<br /><br />And once again thank you. The kindness of wargamers to complete strangers is much under rated.<br /><br />TrebianTrebianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02221916804339000102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615782020735321095.post-75233159577353542492018-02-04T14:45:26.884+00:002018-02-04T14:45:26.884+00:00Hi, Trebian.

If they are any use to you, I have a pack of Italeri American Infantry and one of British Light Cavalry that have been sitting at the back of a drawer for so long , I've forgotten why I ever bought them!<br />If you would like them, email me at nigebrit@gmail.com and I will post them to you.Nigehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07685193208293290190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615782020735321095.post-77436360461642140032018-02-04T12:02:01.791+00:002018-02-04T12:02:01.791+00:00Thanks for looking.

Send me a copy and I'll let you see mine!<br /><br />Squares may end up being the answer, but for the moment all my figures and terrain are based and done in a very 1980s style, so I think tape measures might suit the look.Trebianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02221916804339000102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615782020735321095.post-12072294735471345342018-02-02T11:17:34.862+00:002018-02-02T11:17:34.862+00:00I definitely do not have any Washington's Arm...I definitely do not have any Washington's Army figures anywhere about my person or home. However I do have a homegrown set of WSS rules which might add some ideas to your pot, if you're interested. Although you appear to have got off to a spiffing start.<br /><br />No squares...are you sure that's wise? I am not sure I can sign up at COW knowing it won't be squares.<br /><br />Cheers<br /><br />Andrew Rumblestriphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15458538310473447360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7615782020735321095.post-1781771356920686142018-02-02T11:06:55.552+00:002018-02-02T11:06:55.552+00:00Phil does not have enough for the size of my ambit...Phil does not have enough for the size of my ambition.
