Montrose's Irish Brigade dress

Dear Fellows,

What is the current learned opinion on the dress of Montrose's Irish Brigade? Would the soldiers have uniforms? What were they? And if not, would their dress resemble the scottish lowlanders or highlanders?

However, I've read in two spanish sites that the "blue coats with red facings" uniform appeared at the beggining of the XVIII Century, with the reorganization of the spanish artillery under Phillip V.

Does anyone knows what was the uniform of the spanish artillery during the end of the XVII century? I searched in my Boieri book about the Spanish Armies of the Nine Years War, but he doesn't mention the artillery ):

Re: Uniforms of the Reichsarme States (SYW)

I know Kronoskaf, but it only mentions the native forces of the german pincipalities that didn't take part in the reichsarme
Friedrich August I., did the Archbishop of Trier have an army besides the Infantry Regiment Kurtrier of the Reichsarme?

Does Anyone have any clue about which uniforms were worn by the austrian and imperial troops during this war? The russian military history site "Xenophon-mil" has information about their 1680s uniforms, as does John Mollo's book "Military Fashion", but I couldn't find anything about their 1670s unif...
