Union Generals

July 30th, 2009 Fire at Will Posted in ACW Comments Off

I picked up a number of the Strelets Confederate General Staff as part of a trade, some will appear later in a different guise, but these I just repainted as Union commanders as I already had a set for the Confederates.

Victory at Vicksburg!!! (145th Anniversary + 10 days)

July 14th, 2008 Sapper Joe Posted in ACW, Travel Comments Off

Well, while I working down here in Jackson, MS, I was able to get away for a Sunday to go see the Vicksburg, MS, National Battlefield. I was not able to spend much time there, but I got to see mostly what I wanted to see - The Missouri Monument, most of the Missouri units' markers, Thayer's Approach (and walk up and down it in with a Humidity Factor of 106 F / 41 C!), and finally the USS Cairo.

Coming Soon: Perry Plastics ACW!

December 17th, 2007 Mark A. Siefert Posted in ACW Comments Off

TMP is reporting that Perry Miniatures is coming out with a set of 25mm plastic American Civil War figures that will include cavalry and infantry:
The cavalry will include 12 mounted figures (including command). There being in horses two parts (with an integral base), 4 different riders with separate right arms, hats and carbines - you'll have option of over 5,000 variants with the cavalry. Both these boxes are intended for use for Union and Confederate forces, as the headgear is separate, allowing the customer to customise their armies accordingly. This means there'll be 36 kepis and 36 slouch hats, and 12 of each for the cavalry. The head gear is slightly dished out, and the heads have a slight dome instead of a full braincase to allow some tilting of the hats.
At this time, Perry is estimating the set to round around £12. 24 bucks! For 48 figures! I think I'll finally be able to build those skirmishers for Brother Against Brother. Now, if they could only do Zoauves.
