Hi Michael, I'm afraid that I couldn't even begin to tell you- it's the first time I've heard of Parkfield Miniatures.....  ??? ??? ???

Thank you Svennn they look very good together. I hope Parkfield add some more miniatures to the range as I have some of the Foundry miniatures painted and a small lead mountin.

Chaps

With my Parkfield hat on I have got more figures almost ready.  Unfortunately due to upheaval at home due to extension and various other alterations, things have not moved on as quickly as I would have hoped.  However, I have some more EVA, a figure suitable for Mr Ward and more Imperial types just about ready to go.

This range is one that will probably be fairly small but hoping to diversify to cover more Chinese conflicts of this period so will be interchangeable with each other.

Having just finished 'The Devil Soldier' my plan is to add figures, at least initially, suitable to cover the Shanghai 30 mile campaign, together with some flags.

Whilst writing and not intending to hijack this thread, are there any suitable rules for this period other than TSATF?

I'll keep you updated on progress.

We wrote rules for 1836-1900 "Victorian Steel" we used them big time for the Boxer Rebellion,Sudan and European conflicts, this is one period i would love to get into and game.
