Flags for the AWI and a question about Injuns! :-)

Lads two questions for fellow AWI enthusiasts if I may please.

First off, are the two packs of native Indians in the FIW range compatible in terms of size/sculpting with the AWI range? They look like lovely little sculpts from the pictures on the Pendraken site but I was worried that they might be too small. Any input from someone who owns figures from both ranges would be much appreciated.

Secondly and more importantly. What do you guys use for flags? I have had very good experience with Maverick flags but they don't have all the battalions I will be doing for my British army. I saw that our very own Pendraken sells a pack of flags for the British but they won't be enough for the 21 battalions I am planning and really I don't want to go generic. I would rather equip each battalion with their historically accurate flag. In that context I would appreciate any advice/suggestions on this matter.

Cheers  :D

French Indian Wars FI13 Indians are perfect.
At my club we all used Vaubanner flags, just ask him to scale down to 10mm (Thanks to Dazza for that hint).

I asked him to make them 12/13mm on the pole edge, that way they fit Pendraken perfectly. I cant take the credit for that though, Clibinarium advised me :)
