Thank you. They are based for Arty Conliffe's Crossfire rules but the 30 x 30mm will work for Great War Spearhead too.

Can I ask which colour you used for the uniforms?

I’ve just received a replacement pot of Vallejo French Mirage Blue, but it is much greyer than the previous one I had.

And an interesting set, comprising QRF ACW engineers with Peter Pig French headswaps and a Battlefront Schneider tank. The French used engineer teams with their tanks following the experience in Chemin des Dames battles of 1917:
