Very good, Simon. Worth a quick dash of Ray Chandler:

“Down these mean streets/corridors a man must go who is not himself mean (I prefer careful with money), who is neither tarnished (hey, I bathe regularly-ish) nor afraid (ok, let's park that one for the moment). He is the hero (oh dear, is that compulsory?); he is everything (well, let's not totally strip the shelves). He must be a complete man (last time I looked) and a common man (sadly, yes, very) and yet an unusual man (look, I told you all that in confidence). He must be, to use a rather weathered phrase, a man of honor (ok, now you're just taking the piss) — by instinct, by inevitability, without thought of it, and certainly without saying it (yes, definitely taking the piss). He must be the best man in his world (due to low self-esteem, not even when alone) and a good enough man for any world (soooo, it's really not looking good....)."

Yes.

How compatible are these with the Flags of War figures? They look much 'chunkier'?

Not a bad compatibility I think, I'm not going to use them in the same units, but I think they'd happily mix in a formation:

L = FR, R = FoW (in a very slightly stooped pose)

Front rank always looked like well fed garrison troops to me, rather than the poor sods who had to march and stuff.

I can see they would be usable. But in the meantime, I will stick with the Flags ones, and I am going to NOT do what I did with AWI & Napoleonics, which was to buy four times more figures than I could ever use in a SP game. So a few groups a side is quite adequate. (Ha!)
