Thanks Eric but only in metal. :D
I used to work on a modelling shop and i´m familiar with almost all 1/72 plastics.

The 1/72 is a good scale (i start wargaming with it in 1979) and the offer of figurines in our 21th century is very impressive for a converter guy like us !

a mix of biblical warrior and indian sets could field the job very easily, i think Caesar could be helpfull

cheers

There's a really, really good book on the subject called "Soldiers of the Virginia Colony". It goes into lots of detail on the equipment and tactics and is well worth buying

the Anglo-Powhatan Wars.

 ??? What?
(and, how do you pronounce it BTW?)  lol

I've got to be honest and say that I've never heard of this war! o_o

Me neither.  ::)

i have got mine  ;)


You are lucky! We are in need of 17th century Jesuit miniatures! One of my friends is even using a miniature of a Dark Ages monk for this!  :'(

Probably I'll sculpt settlers and convert powhatans from hat nubian warriors in january or feb. Now I need to finish my cossacks and wallachians for the other project .
