Indeed!
I shall see if Jed has any at Colours tomorrow.
One the scrounge for more info....there is a 28mm Fishwife figure I saw a while back (probably a medieval range) but cannot remember the manufacturer, they may be German. Can the esteemed membership help once again?

This is probably a better link for viewing the 28mm Conflix buildings:

http://www.michtoy.com/michtoy_search_products.php?Types=Scenic%20and%20Diorama%20Materials&Categories=Pre-Finished%20Scenic%20Products&Vendor_ID=Conflix&Scale=28mm%20(1/56%20Scale%20or%201%20and%201/8%20inches)&action=listing

That is a Chinese manufacturer making buildings out of a hard resin, with no playable interiors.  These buildings look great, are reasonably priced, and can be used to make a nice little village of 7 buildings. If an interior fight is needed, one would need to use another building, or make a larger playable interior for the fight.

There is a guy named Steve Winter who made a magnificent tavern interior called the Inn of the Luminous Toad, complete with rugs to pull, tables covered with food to flip, chairs to throw or smash, great kegs of wine, etc.  He used wallpaper from World Works to make the walls look like the inside of a tavern.  He presented games using this the last few years at Enfilade in Olympia, Washington, the annual game conference of the Northwest Historical Miniatures Gaming Society.  He used Savage Worlds as a combat system.  Here's my old post about it, with a link to photos:

Thank you, again, inspirational stuff.
Picked up a Thomarillion 'Twilight Inn' at Colours this w/e to get me started; looks like it will easily take conversion:

also looked at the Redoubt figures as I was after a Planchet....they really are large figures and I doubt they will work with Brigade.

You may want to check out the new Medieval/ECW buildings from Grand Manner.  I have included a link;
http://www.grandmanner.co.uk/shop/prodtype.asp?PT_ID=72&strPageHistory=cat

More are featured on my Blog.

I was responsible for many of the masters and believe they could easily be used with Musketeers, in addition most if not all of the range feature lift-off roofs.  We were at Colours, maybe you saw them?
