I think they all present brilliantly at that scale. I feel like I need some historic wargaming in my life.

Great work! Your Confederates look ready to take the field. I've been working my way through the original starter set and its time consuming indeed. But when you group all the units on the table they look amazing! Keep us posted.

Very cool. I started wargaming with the american civil war and airfix 1/72 scale infantry, cavalry and artillery. We used the french foreign legion airfix models for zouaves. That’s what we had, but it was 50 years ago. Keep us posted on your armies updates 👍🏻

Good for you! For me, 28mm is only for small skirmishes of 5 to 10 miniatures per side, above that, I prefer smaller scales.

I’ve done both the ACW and napoleonic. I’m just starting to do the Hannibal battle set. I have a friend that is doing the ECW and loves them. What’s also nice about the epic is that you can use them in other table games as the playing pieces.

With the flags you'd normally want to go with one battle flag of the northern army of virginia and then one state flag or one national flag and one state flag, also one trick I used is that you can cut the man not attached to the artillery off and move him around the base wherever you'd like adding a bit of variation to your artillery models

They look very nice, it's funny you are burnt out with 28mm and find the epic scale rewarding, I paint 6mm and the odd 10mm and never looked back. For what we look to achieve on the gaming table the smaller scale models allow us to paly all the massive battles of history and in a day. The sheer cost of the 28mm stuff and just how long it takes to paint up and look decent is enough to put me off but to play something like Gettysburg in 28mm would required a 30 ft wide table! horses for courses

@@tinsoldierwargaming7698 Happy to help. The Stars and Bars is used till May 1863 and would gradually be replaced by the Second Flag(known as the Stainless banner). By December of that year all units in the ANV should be carrying it..things went a bit slower in the Western theatre.
