My thoughts and suggestions on future ACW infantry in greatcoats:

Set 1 "ACW infantry in greatcoats marching", basically marching sets, mix of kepis and slouch hats.
Set 2 "ACW infantry in greatcoats in action", running, skirmishing, loading and firing. Some casualty figures and command figures are included.
Set 3 "ACW infantry in greatcoats in camp", sitting, standing still, guarding, includes camp fire, stack of rifles and cabin.
Set 4 "ACW infantry in greatcoats standing still in anticipation".

Scenes that can be recreated:

Iuka
Petersburg
Fredericksburg
and more

I'd love to hear more suggestions and thoughts.

not to mention Shiloh!..........

I would love to see ACW in greatcoats. Would also purchase them as well.

Was gonna mention Shiloh but got unsure, all paintings I've seen depict the troops without greatcoats, so not sure about that one..

I really want these sets, even if we only get one mixed set I'm happy. All those winter scenarios is what I look forward to.

edit: I seem to have mixed up Stones River with Iuka in my first post, which was fought in September, not the time of year for greatcoats..

Shiloh was fought on april 6th and 7th so the weather was not all that warm, even in the south. plus I've seen some re-enactments there and there were plenty of greatcoats. your right about stones river, that's another good one. man I can't wait for these new sets to come out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fredericksburg was fought in December so there are lots of great paintings of soldiers in winter outfits. Don Troiani did a wonderful painting of the Irish Brigade charging up Marye's Heights at Fredericksburg. Link:

The weather at Shiloh was unseasonably warm in the Spring of 1862.
