I would like to see Ticonderoga related troops and items, but only late next year as I am still collecting Quebec related offerings and intend to go for the 1745 Hielanders too. -- lancer

And a limber and oxen for the artillery pieces.

 

[Combat]

Ticonderoga or Louisbourg figures.
Madame de Drucour firing off a cannon.
Brit light infantry - Light Bobs
Black Watch attacking the French entrenchments at Ticonderoga.
(Capt.) James Cook at Quebec.
Daniel Boone w/Braddock.

Some Indian personalities like "the Half King."

This might be mor AWI or War of 1812, but maybe a gunboat on the great lakes.

 

[OldDragon]

And a limber and oxen for the artillery pieces.

Considering that the latest French gun comes with only 3 gunners ... I will hazzard a guess that a limber set with additional gunners, is just over the horizon.

In The Last of the Mohicans when the French are besieging Ft. William Henry they had this large mortar that I thought it was cool.

Well we got the French artillery set and more infantry for POA. That’s a good start. I don’t know about the rest of you but I’m ready for General Braddock. Maybe John could work Washington into this set somehow. I would still like to see a battle of Ticonderoga series. John has not done the Black Watch yet and I think this is a must for the F&I collection.

They were cool, but I recall they didn't seem to be set at the correct angle for the distance. Not that I have ever fired a mortar before, but lack of experience in anything has never stopped me offering an opinion before, so why start now

My FIW wish list would include:
(1) More personalities, such as Amherst & Montcalm's able subordinates.
(2) Greater French regimental representation.
(3) Civilians at the St. Louis Gate as Montcalm is being led back through it.
(4) The St. Louis Gate as it appeared then, rather than what we see today.
(5) The battle at Fort Ti, including the log & earthen works.
(6) Black Watch figures
(7) Viscount Howe
Well, the list goes on & on. By the by, Ron Barszo does sporadically produce a wonderful star fort, although it's not advertised on his website. It would lend itself to many a diorama & it closely resembles Fort Ti.

 

[King's Man]

I too would like to see a mortar set. A french one so I could use it in my Yorktown diorama.

Hopefully John is taking ideas from here. Personally I would love to see Ticonderoga - the Highlanders - a little battered and bruised, the abbatis, fieldworks and some tired, scarred and dirty French soldiers. More wounded sets would be good. Adds to the realism of a diorama. The actual Fort would be awesome but incredibly expensive done by John. Barzso did a great Stone Fort set but ended production, maybe he can resurrect it if we all asked nicely? Also some of the British Light infantry. What I would love to see most of all is a limited boxed set of the entire Monongahela series, recast and set with maybe a new figure exclusive to the set - like Washington maybe? Be expensive but no more so than trying to buy them all individually. Cheers.
