The other Northstar figures fit perfectly with Perry

since Northstar and Perry also fit to AssaultGroup, that might be an option, too.
However, I don't know if the minis from AssaultGroup are historically correct. To me they just look good, and that includes the Chinese.

Don't worry about that James. I am working on a substantial range of Ming to fit in with the Perry ranges. ;)

Post by: Byblos on October 27, 2015, 10:12:46 AM: Waôwww : Ming & Koreans ! Very interesting !

For a big range , may i suggest the Killer Katana II 's supplement about the japanese invasion of Korea !?

(Lot of drawings , very useful)

And the Hehon Taïkoki :
