Hessians in the Frame

Todays purchases were modest, some paint, you all know what paint looks like, a few collies which I've posted about before and some Hessians which were a first for me.

A Warlord Games box of AWI Hessians costs £18 and looks like this.


The contents allow 30 miniatures to be made up, 24 musketeers, fusiliers or grenadiers including two officers, a sergeant, a drummer and two ensigns and 6 jaegers.

There is a multiplicity of head options which need to be carefully analysed but you can get something like this from the box.


The various options are fully detailed in a four page handout, shown below.





As you can see there is a ton of detail to get through as well as loads of flags and I'll post the results when I get there.

  1. I didn't use to rate Wargames Factory stuff but the newer stuff looks loads better! I have a box of the militia they are fair better then the older kits, 100% better

    1. I've used their various products for quite some time now. They can't be beaten for price and the quality has been everything from adequate to quite good.

      I will give these sprues a good look at in daylight tomorrow and will also blog the end result when I get there.

  2. Will you be using them for the Rebellion or the Seven Years War?
