Title: 1830-1871 armed militia
Post by: KTravlos on 22 January 2015, 05:42:44 PM
If Pendraken does not produce them already could we have a generic 19th century armed militia for the 1848 wars pack? A mixture of figures in work smocks and headgear would work well for representing the various popular forces raised during the 1830-1871 period.

Some armed Russian militia for WW2 Eastern Front would be good too. For use as both partisans and workers militia defending their factories.

Aren't the Communard figures in the French 1870 range useful?

Communards would work for some of them, but might be harder for the 1848-9 German and Italians. But i did not know about this code. I will check it out.

Some Fenians/civillian militia are planned for the 1860s Canadian militia.

Maybe the dismounted raiders from the ACW range? They're pretty casual... might need the hats chopping though as IIRC they're very cowboy!
