I have now assembled my two 54mm ACW armies for Neil Thomas OHW using my old childhood figures.
The figures are a mixture of Britains Swoppet and Deetail together with a few Herald ones. The union cavalry are Deetail 7th cavalry figures. I have made the movement strays from artist board painted a suitable green and used white tack to hold the figures in place.
My son has unpainted Imex, Armies in Plastic, BMC and Italeri figures which I can always raid to paint up a few extra if needed.
I plan to play a game tomorrow. Take the High Ground looks a good scenario to start with.

Great looking armies! Looking forward to seeing them in action!
They look smashing, I did wonder if you had glued them down or not. Probably wise not to.
I too look forward to the battle.
An excellent step! I look forward to the battle.
Looking forward to hearing how the game goes...
Splendid toys Mark…
This really takes me back in time…
A school friend and I had Britains ACW Swoppets …
We were full old school and shot at them with air pistols…😳
All the best. Aly
Ah, you have inadvertently opened a wound. I had a magnificent but small collection of 54mm metals for the American Revolution. Alas, I sold them to help finance the purchase of the Tennant collection. Yours look like great fun!
