Prussian Flags

[Jajf]

Hey Paul, are you going to stock any napoleonic Prussian flags?

My huns (sorry, prussians..) need some colours.

A note to the Prussian flagstaffs in 1813/14 , the Regiments used different colours for them. IR 1, 6, 7, 8 and 11 used white staffs 2, 3, 4 , 9 and 10 black ones. IR 5 had brown ones. The foot guard regiments had yellow ones.

The Grenadierbattalions used different ones too.

Re the flagpole colours per Rgt -i see to remeber that the warflag website actually details the colours used ok thatwill help

For Prussian Flags i Use the ones from Maverick. Cant remember the site ULR so just search for Maverick flags on google.
They make Paper-Plain or Simulated Textured and Real Cloth Plain or Simulated Textured.

Hope this Helps

Thanks for the advice guys!

@ gorgarrak
Do the 25mm scale flags look convincing on 28mm figures?

Below are a couple of GMB "25mm" flags on 28mm Perry-sculpted Wargames Foundry figures. Your figures, your decision, mate.

hi Jajf
the 25mm flags look fine, sorry no pics, but the trick is to buy the flag and measure it before you attach a standard pole to the mini this way you can cut the pole to a convincing length despite the 3mm scale difference

Most flags are hugely overscale so using a 25mm one on 28mm figs should be no problem. I've used some of the overly large 15mm ones (flags for the Lads) for 20mm figs and the small (Revo) 15mm ones for 10mm figures in the past. Could not find a flag to fit my 2nd generation Minifigs 15mm though without replacing the flagpole (which I cant be bothered to do)
