I've also had confirmation that work will start on the next phase of sculpting with Irish, Bagotts Hussars, Artillery and new packs to supplement what we already have.

When you get bored making all this wonderful stuff can we have:-
Civilians (Highland/ lowland/ English), Rickety wagons (4 & 2 wheeled), Animals (especially
McMoos, Highland cattle) and bases of supplies (Barrels/sacks/cannon balls with gunpowder etc.)

Wouldn't it be lovely if there were buildings too?

Don't want much do I?

Quite a lot of that is already available. Granted not from me but there is certainly plenty of it around.

Yep, McMoos available from Warbases, though those ones look like their summer coat, and in most cases the cattle should be the smaller black cattle or Highland stirk. Lots of the Perry/Foundry AWI civilians would be suitable for 1745, Supreme Littleness do a Culloden Cottage, and battlefield clutter is available from loads of sources if you have no ckils with ball bearings and milliput..

Yes guys I do realise other suppliers are available, I even have
some of it myself, but I am really taken with the look & feel of the
Flags of War stuff. I feel that stuff they would produce would 'go
the extra mile'. There is a genuine love for the period. For example,
when the Jacobite army marched past Carlisle it was reported that
it included wagons with cheese & biscuits. That is the kind of thing I want.

Baggage always makes a great addition to a game.

Personally I find the Hudson and Allen range is a really good look and fit for the Flags of War range, worth a look if you have no seen them already.

Gripping Beast also do Mcmoo's if you havent seen them yet.

Thanks Rogerc.
I do have some Gripping beast McMoos (but some variety would not go amiss)
& I most certainly will have a look at 'Hudson & Allen' (Not heard of them before).

H&A unfortunately don't seem to have a UK stockists as far as I know, making them prohibitively expensive for UK purchasers with shipping and import costs.

I managed to get hold of H&A buildings a few years ago, I think they’d be very suitable if you can find them:

All buildings are H&A except the church on the left, which is Grand Manner. Their medieval range contains some very suitable buildings but now only available pre-painted and consequently expensive.

Looking forward to the FoW figures, I might even get to finish my 1745 project

Rogerc · « **Reply #55 on:** January 20, 2020, 10:50:47 AM »

The H&A buildings are great and they have specific Highland crofts, below is their Inn and a couple of other items.

That whole thread’s a bit inspirational

yep, I read it through last night while hot-gluing gravel to MDF. (Don't tell me I don't know how to live the high life.)

The tower is especially nice, and the mix of autumn colours very convincing.

DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS MAN!!! Him and his brother have a way of making out this stuff is easy but they are liars. They are two seriously talented gamers and will lead you into false pretences.
