As an aside, I’ve just seen a recent FB post showing Warlord Epic scale British being painted up (hopefully the link will work).

Well these are a metal cast, so not sure if this is just a prototype before they do any plastics or if Warlord are going to do the entire range in metal (or resin). Also not sure if the shakos are belgic or not (I think they are stovepipe, so it looks like Warlord might be going with the Spanish Peninsula campaign). Again these are “weird ass” 13.5mm scale (so they will not mix in with any other ranges/scales and you are effectively “locked in” if you go this route with Warlord), and we’ll have to see what the pricing will be (Warlord are currently charging £45 for THREE metal ACW infantry regts at the moment).

EDIT Nope they are definitely Belgic Shakos, so it’s the 100 days campaign. Not the best campaign they could have gone with, but I expect we’ll see the British, French, and Prussians produced (good luck on finding 13.5mm Dutch Belgians) 🙁
