Galloping Major and Redoubt... compatible?
« on: November 28, 2009, 03:55:37 AM »
I've been thinking about doing F&IW forever and was wondering if someone could lend some insight as to whether the GM and Redoubt stuff match up sizewise? They look pretty comparable in sculpting style from what I can tell.

Redoubt either end, GM in the middle.

The answer is yes. A very close fit.

Go with the Galloping Major stuff, its a superb range and looks like it will cover the whole war in detail. :)

I'd have to second that.
I've got a huge mob of Redoubt indians, and I like them a lot.
But I don't much like the Redoubt regulars and irregulars. Different sculptor - much clunkier and some unconvincing poses.

Plus, Lance's GM figures are beautiful to paint. Just the right amount of definition and detail to be a pleasure, whilst leaving room for a little soupcon of artistic creativity...  ;)

Thanks Cpt. Blood, that's helpful. I was only planning to use Redoubt to fill in the blanks like canoes, portage figures, firebrands, etc. The stuff GM doesn't yet do.
