Ged previews some of the excellent Black Flags that will be released at Salute, all the figures are open handed to take a variety of rifles and polearms...Speaking to Ged, there is plenty  of unusual and exciting items to come!

All very cool! I would have replied earlier but finally figured out the LAF's web address change.  lol
"Peace" is that brief, glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading.

one of the more exotic factions involved in this
conflict were the "Black Flags aligned with their
Annamese (north Vietnam) allies against the
yellow flags and the multi-national French forces
some of the French equipment was quite "Jules Verne)
in appearance

black flag standard bearer attached...worth doing a
range just for him alone!! :o :-* o_o :D

The main battle standard of the Black Flag army is actually the Seven star banner(big dipper).


The standard bearer you've attached is shown with a command flag; used to relay military orders from top down under the pain of death.

Impressive stuff. Not my sphere of interest, but could be. Thank you for posting.
Any way of getting sub titles in English?
