I am interested in painting up a 28mm Late Teutonic army for the Battle of Tannenberg. There are several lovely lines of Agincourt related figures available. As the battles are fairly close in time (separated by 5 years) would that a good source for figures? My initial hunch was be that the French/English "look" would be a ahead of central/eastern Germany and the Teutonics but in reading further about it I am less confident that this was the case. Any suggestions or opinions are most appreciated.

As always, my goto first stop is Old Glory.

Join the Old Glory army and the fist two or three packs will pay off the initial fee.

You should be fine with Agincourt figures. There were lots of "Crusaders" contingents from various European countries in the battle of Tannenberg. There was a small English contingent, for example, and individuals from all over Western Europe. You'll be perfectly OK with figures from Agincourt ranges.

Appreciate the feedback and the source material as well. I think this will be a fun army to paint up. Thanks again.
