fantastic - he's converting already!

Clarence and I are due to talk soon about flag release dates. Another thing on our agenda!

Quick question about flags I like the look of the ones I have seen so far but they look a bit big to me are they actual size for the figures or are they as they seem to be more heroic in stature?

I would personally prefer them to be to scale myself as the ones I make my self are so they would look odd mixed, but I am only really up to painting simple stuff like French flags.

Mine are heroic scale, though not the size of the LoA standard. We are going to print on demand so the plan is to offer the flags in different scales. Since they are designed at 50mm high (Barry Hilton's usual size), it will be a simple matter to print them at 40mm (my normal preference), 30mm (probably close to 'real life'), 20mm, and 10mm, simply by printing at 10/20/30/40%. I don't know if we will offer all of these sizes, but there will be some options...

Mine vary a bit but the tend to be between 25mm & 30 mm square for infantry in 25/8mm as they look to scale to me at that size.

:lol: Barry I am shocked :shock: I thought this was a civilized forum :lol:

However I do appreciate folks producing nice versions of the more complex flags in whatever size & the print on demand thing sounds good too. I also can as a aside point the WFP at Barry when they are wrong & as they turn strike them a sharp blow to the back of the head thus increasing the fun quotient of wargaming :twisted:

Should now have the first 8 flag sheets available very soon. It will include

3 Dutch
2 Danish
2 English
1 Williamite Irish.

They look really nice. Clarence has done an absoutely bang up job on these. I will even be using some on my own units and that is a big decision for me as I am a linen man through and through!
