Title: compatibility...again
Post by: burnaby64 on 11 September 2013, 04:03:27 PM
I've read the earlier thread on compatibility between Pendraken and Magister Militum Napoleonics and think I know where to go with this but just to make sure: I'm attracted by the Pendraken French Revolutionary Wars range, French and Austrian, and was considering completing by using MM figures for cavalry and artillery. I realise that this will entail filing down the MM bases but are there any other obvious hindrances to the scheme? Many thanks in anticipation. { If this doesn't work it'll have to be 6mm...but they lack the breadth of the Pendraken offering}

Those would work together fine, both ranges were actually done by the same designer, Martin Baker.

I think you'll find these aren't compatible. Put any MM figures next to Pendraken, and you're bound to be disappointed.  :P

And I should have added that this swift and helpful response just confirms me in my total admiration for Pendraken. Lang may yer lum reek, as we say up here!

Even if they are not mixed in the same unit?? Am I to believe the manufacturer here or not? How subjective is this?

I lie. I am a complete Pendraken slave and will subvert anyone I can.

Sorry.

Thank you for that. Of course as the owner of four different Pendraken armies I appreciate the quality of the product but where units are missing from a range then needs must.......

I beg to disagree. They've very good at resisting nagging.

Cant really comment on the 10mm, but I've bought a lot of MMs 15mm stuff and found it excellent, much better than say Essex/Warrior/Outpost/15mm.co.uk, and you should be golden if you dont put them in the same unit.
