Sorry for the really really really poor picture but I havbe took it yestarday and today moved back to london... far (for the moment) from my 28mm barracks... these are WW1 Palestine Brits from BH... not bad in "flesh" what you think (if the pictures allow you to see something)









I promise next pictures will be better.

it really is difficult to see much at all as they are

and I hope you enjoy your stay in good old blighty

Hi Arrigo,

Nice work on the Battle Honour Brits 8)

Battle Honours have been around for a while and whilst they maybe old in some ways they do still have an incredible an useful range.

Can you please tell us about your project if its not a secret  :?:

Best wishes,

the project is....

Palestine (and you can guess my favorite battle from my signature :lol: ) and Mesopotamia in WW1

I have ordered some Turks, the brit artyllery and Maxim from BH and some of the new turks and Australians from Gripping Beast for collection at salute. Maybe I will buy some other stuff (hoping in some brigade retailer, but also considering some more Brits and ANZAC from BH and maybe Copplestone).

I plan to use the new Chris Peers rules (have to buy them at Salute).

I like BH figures, nice poses, good prices and not so small like I was fearing.

They look good mate.  Battle Honors figures are underrated.  I really like them.
