15mm Wargaming Figures for the South American Wars of Liberation

Here are some suggestions for 15mm figures to use for the a href=”liberators”>South American Wars of Liberation. I cover both specialist figures and make-do jobs from Napoleonic ranges.


Where to get Liberators figures

You basically have two choices, either use a specialist range (i.e. Grenadier Productions) or use Napoleonic figures. Personally I do both. Have a look at my armies for the War in the South to get some inspiration:

Using Specialist South American Figures

I’m only aware of one specialist range of 15mm wargaming figures for the South American Wars of Liberation: the figures from Grenadier Productions.

The Grenadier Productions packs were originally 8 infantry and 4 cavalry; they also had unit packs of 24 infantry or 12 cavalry. These are the packs listed as “Old Codes”. Now they have moved to packs of 12 infantry and 6 cavalry – the “New Codes” – without unit packs. I’ve retained the old codes to remind myself what I purchased in the past when rummaging through my boxes of unpainted lead. Packs are referenced like this: “New Code [Old Code] Description”.

Using Napoleonic figures for South America

Until the advent of the specialist range of 15mm figures from Grenadier Productions most gamers used standard Napoleonic figures with a South American paint job. Here are few guidelines based on Balkan Military History: South America and discussions on Liberators 1810-1830 Yahoo Discussion Forum.

John Fletcher said, for example “I built many of my Chilean troops by using 1815 Dutch-Belgian infantry. They are by no means a perfect match but the single breasted short jackets and French style shakos was good enough for me at the time. ”

There are a wide selection of Napoleonic era 15mm figures available, including Fantassin, Battle Honours, AB, Essex and Old Glory 15s. The specialist Grenadier Productions are designed to be compatible with Fantassin (also known as War Modelling / Capitan / Stonewall Miniatures), hence by implication are compatible with Battle Honours and AB.

Using Napoleonic ranges:

  • AB Figures JP233 Jena Prussian Hussars

Terry Haney suggested AB Figures Jena Prussian Hussars (JP233) in shako make an excellent substitute for Royalist cavalry and Patriot Cazadore a Caballo, as they have no pelisse and tall straight shako. Just need to trim off their pigtail.

Balkan Military History: South America used French Chasseurs a Cheval, which is appropriate for the Elite company but not for the majority. Looks impressive though.

Terry Haney suggested AB Figures Jena Prussian Hussars in shako (JP233) make an excellent substitute for Royalist cavalry and Patriot Cazadore a Caballo, with no pelisse and tall straight shako. Just need to trim off their pigtail.

No specialist figures for these.

Using Napoleonic ranges:

I used:

  • Fantassin / War Modelling UN-31 British Rifles Marching
  • Fantassin / War Modelling UN-30 Command Light Infantrymen

That said, the historical unit used muskets not rifles. John Fletcher used Two Dragons Productions figures as they have their sabres attached like bayonets, giving the overall appearance of muskets.

Cannon

Grenadier Productions:

The Spanish adopted the Gribeauval system in 1792 but in the Americas some Valliere’s probably stayed in service. John Fletcher original used Fantassin French 4lbrs and 8lbrs for the majority of his guns. I found them rather chunky and much prefer John’s dedicated range.
