Title: Shadows of Brimstone Scale? Possible use for Silver Bayonet?
Post by: metalface13 on November 19, 2020, 08:11:37 PM

I was browsing around Shadows of Brimstone stuff and saw this Lost Army expansion and thought the skeleton models might work for Silver Bayonet, the upcoming Napoleonics horror game from Osprey. Does anyone know how they scale with other historical ranges? There's a lot of crossover with Dracula's America I thought I'd ask. They do look like they might be a bit bigger than 28mm.

They are decent models, but they are on the tall side.  Here is a picture of two partially-painted guys next to two of Black Scorpion's Tombstone range - which are themselves taller than many Western figure lines.

Flying Frog also sells, individually and in resin, a musician, standard bearer, and officer for the Lost Army.  And there is a plastic cannon and crew set.

Those Lost Army figures look pretty much spot on for 40mm. If so they would be a good match for Sash & Saber, Triguard, Gringo and maybe others?

Also interested to see them compared to 40mm

Yeah, those are definitely too tall for 28mm Napoleonics. Thanks for the comparison shot!

For undead napoleonics you could have a look through the flintloque range? Pretty sure there are some zombie napoleonic russians in there. :)

They're un-dead magical creatures. Being bigger because of whatever brought them back made them so is allowable.
