Heya,

I've been drawn into playing alot of Dead Man's Hand Rules set with a small number of others in my local club and I've always been a fan ACW.

Now I'd like to form/base my gang of Outlaws/cut-throats on a bunch of Confederate Deserters, but have no idea what miniatures are out there.

Anyone know of any? Only need around 7 and must be 28mm

Many thanks
Chico

Hi Chico.

I think your best option are Quantrill Riders from Foundry:

Forget about the painjob on some minis, some jackets and coats can be painted with confederate colours.

Edit: Oh, and check this one too:

Thanks very much for the help, on another group I've got shown them and there are very nice indeed.

ATM I'm leaning towards these:



But it's far from perfect, as they are too clean cut.

One of the DMH boxes is essentially just what you describe...a bunch of ex-Civil War lookin' fellas.  Can't recall which box.

EDIT: I take it back, the Desperados have several but they're mixed with indians and Mexicans.

Aye there's a few mixed in with other sets but I don't fancy having to pick up all the sets just to cherry pick 1 or 2 of each.

Cheers

Talk to Dave Thomas and see what he can conjure up.

For our LAF related DT, that would mean the collapse of the UK second hand figure industry!  lol

Thanks everyone for your help, so much goodies to choose from.

I put up a quick Blog post detailing what I'm using them for if anyone is interested:
