Post by: Wilhelm on November 07, 2013, 07:29:04 AM

Hi my name is Alexander. I'm Bani's friend (Guynemer), Im interested in Selecuid period, Roman as well as the Austro-Prussian war and the periods between that and world war one, My first introduction to Flats was by Guynemer who gave me as a gift some flat figures and I really like them. I'm looking to expand my collection of flats through the periods I have stated. It will be fun to know know you all and I am looking forward to contribute as much as I can.

Welcome Alexander and thank you for saying Hello,


There should be much here to interest you and always very friendly folks.


One thing they may assist in your hunt for tidbits from your favorite period is the Gallery Section which has a number of keywords listed.  These are searchable in the Gallery section meaning if you search on elephant you will find all of the Gallery pictures with elephants etc.  There is a keyword for Franco Prussian war as well.


Hope you enjoy the site.


-cheers


Mark


P.S. Cortum also has some great figures Macedonian figures with pikes by the way.
