I use warrior miniatures for a lot of my armies. They will never be war games foundry/perry quality, but on the whole good enough for wargame table. The army packs are a good bulk buy.
i used his French wars indian range as my huron for Mk this year

Do Warrior miniatures come with variants or is each code just a single pose?

What date

What Scale

My Huron in 15mm are a mix of Blue moon and Peter Pig but not sure whether they would be suitable for plains Indians as its not an area I know enough of, the blue moon figures are lovely

Cheers

I had a look, and agree they do look very nice.

The thing with the Eastern Forest is that you'll be over-run by mounted armies... at least the plains culture have mounted.

I think that using the Eastern Forest as Plains would be 'ok' but not truly accurate. I DO know a bit (not an expert by any means) and they are the same 'peoples' (just forced out of the north and east by other nations and the colonials) but different in many ways too. I think it would be like using Gothic plate in early medieval... incorrect, but who is going to really know or care?

Thanks for pointing me to Blue Moon - they do look very good.
