Post by: olicana on 28 May 2015, 07:12:39 PM: I hope they do a series of mounted Brigadiers, other senior officers and ADC. Very selfish, but it would fill a gaping hole in my upcoming Peninsular War collection (using FR, which I find are easier to paint).

James,

Knowing the Perry's frenetic (but controlled!) output, they might have done them by the time I've finished typing!! lol

I'm really looking forward to this range..... it will be my first real (personal) foray into Naps..... :o

I am very much looking forward to the Perrys' Danish releases as well.

But also have to say that these look good .... But ...

The trouble is size wise not sure they would fit with my existing FR stuff. At present considering ditching my 3 battalions of Perry British as they are just a tad smaller / less bulky.

My guess is (sadly) not.... there would be a very noticeable difference..... but.... possibly in different units?

Having said that I once put together a Henry V Command base with FR and Perry stuff and it doesn't look too shabby.... mind, it was a command base where one wants a commander to stand out.... pic below:

He certainly does that. Very nice.
