Armed Civilians
« on: 13 June 2016, 03:11:38 PM »
Hello all
I had buried this request in a previous topic and it was probably missed so I will put it here

In our Battle of Ridgeway game, for the Fenians, I had used Perry's plastic ACW mostly, for expedience
But, figures in civilian clothing would be more historically accuarte as few of the Fenians were uniformed

There are some nice figures in the Empress Maori Wars range and in the Perry's ACW metal range that would be suitable
Any thoughts on other suitable figures?

Thanks
Keith

You may find what you are looking for from 1st Corps ACW John Brown packs.

They look like they would suit The Canadian Fenian events as well.
Cheers,
