Flags – Day of Battle POD

The Knights Round Table – Flags

After spending hours of time painting my Medieval and Horse and Musket era miniatures I like to add one or more flags to the unit.

I really feel it makes them pop. This year when I did up my 40mm Middle Earth armies for my “Battle of Five Armies” convention games using Battle Masters rules I added flags to each unit on both sides.

This really helped the armies come alive to me.

Here is a unit of Scottish Pikemen based as a large unit for Day of Battle 5 with a simple flag.

Here are three Flag videos I found helpful on YouTube.

I hope you enjoy them.

All of them use “PVA” white glue in the US. I prefer to use Mod Podge. I works just like the glue but makes for a harder flag and protects it better.

I love these flags and can’t wait to deploy them in my new SYW Prussian army.

Being a uniform and flag design service to wargamers and to the imaginary crowned heads of 17th and 18th Century Europe, especially of the Seven Years War period – now By Appointment to the Court of Saxe-Bearstein! (But please note that the uniforms and flags presented here are not fictional – they are genuine 17th and 18th Century uniforms and flags that are as authentic as I can make them from my sources.)
