Welcome to the Strelets Forum. Please feel free to discuss any aspect of 1/72 scale plastic figures, not simply Strelets. If you have any questions about our products then we will answer them here.
it has been a standard in our hobby for a very long time to have a command group for about 40-50 foot soldiers or 9-15 mounted ones.
Making command figures as a separate set is always a risk that it will never pay back the investment. Moreover, even 50 rank and files is a bit low in terms of genuine officers/soldiers ratio. To make a correct company you usually need 2 boxes with only one command group. With minor paint conversion one can easily use a spare command group for other units.
