Which TBW flag fits WARLORD EPIC the best? 10mm or 15/18mm?

​

The Epic range is 12/13mm in scale, so right in the middle of the 10/15mm range! This means that if you don't want to use the Epic flags that come with the product, you have to decide if you prefer a smaller flag (10mm) or a larger flag (15/18mm).

​

The comparison photos above should help you decide which size you prefer. If not, message me and I will send you some samples.

Notes & Observations

​​​

• Flagpoles for Epic Gettysburg and Waterloo differ in size. Gettysburg are between 3-5 mm shorter than the Waterloo flagpoles.

• TBW 10 mm infantry/cavalry flags* fit comfortably on the Epic flagpoles. However, the Epic Waterloo flags appear relatively small due to the longer flagpoles, whereas the Union/Confederate 10mm flags look more in balance.

• TBW 15/18mm French/Prussian infantry & all Waterloo cavalry flags* fit comfortably on the Epic flagpoles.

• TBW 15/18 mm British/Union infantry flags are about 2-3 mm longer than the Epic flagpole.

• TBW 15/18mm Confederate flags are about 1 mm longer than the Epic flagpole

• Solutions/adaptation:

  • To make large flags fit a small flagpole some careful cutting down the pole with a sharp blade, will enable them to fit.

  • Custom-made wire flagpoles: replacing the Epic flagpoles with your own wire ones cut to the length you prefer, will enable you to make any flag fit.

  • Curling the flags with a wind-blown effect will help visually to mitigate size differences. 
     

* Epic Gettysburg cavalry does not supply a flag-bearing figure. The one shown has been adapted with a simple wire flagpole. Both 10 mm & 15/18mm size cavalry flags will fit a 2 cm flagpole.
