How big are the 10mm flags (for ACW in particular)? Can anyone give me dimensions in mm for width and height please?
Cheers!
According to the Almark American Civil War Infantry the Confederate Battle Flag was 48 inches (125 cm) square. Which at 1:150th scale becomes 8.33 mm square. State flags could vary widely.
The Union National Flag was 6 feet 6 inches (198 cm) on the fly by 6 feet (183 cm) on the pike. This comes down to 13.2 mm by 12.2 mm at 150th. The regimental flag was the same size.
Hope this helps.

The ones we sell are generally oversized slightly, so they stand out nicely on the table. The average across the board would be somewhere around 10-11mm width/height, with the odd exception here and there.

The SCW figures with flag poles can accommodate a 10mm high flag with a smidge to spare if that helps.
Excellent, that's all very useful, thanks.
The ACW figures I have don't have the flag pole molded with the figure - so it's easy to add a separate pole that's the correct size for your flag - hope that helps
The ACW std bearers I have (new range) all have the pole built in.
