That sounds very interesting indeed.will there be infantry in tricornes as well.

Recently bought some allied w.s.s infantry and cavalry from warlord.the infantry is okay nothing spectacular but havn,t painted them up yet so they may look better after being painted. The cavalry to be honest give them a miss.

Sorry forget the above post had a look at the figures they don,t fit the bavarians or austrians .some french dragoons had fur lined caps as far as i can remember.

Havn,t seen the figures but bavarian horse genadiers,austrian grenadier companies of dragoons or dutch guard dragoons..but the above would depend on what type of fur cap it is.

Figures have painted up really well.will have to invest in some myself.

There was a 3 part artical in miniature wargames about the battle of lund .that would give you all the informstion you should need.i still have the issues i,ll try and look them out and tell you the issue numbers. The warfare miniatures 9 years war figure would do fine for the danish and swedes .but...

Yes i did get the russian samples thank you.look forward to seeing the pictures of the great northern war game.as i,ve said before the warfare great northern war range will set the stamdard for others to follow.will we be doing russian pike men in potemken hat.

Fantastic artical on the great northern war in todays wargames illustrated.first of three parts.some great photos of the great nothern war range in the artical as well .some really good photos of gunters saxons in the artical.so i hope that everybody gets a copy . Also good double page advert promot...

How do ebor great northern war swedish figures compare in size to warfare .could you mix them in the same unit.

Cd arrived yesterday morning .would love to post a review of it but my computor is down.

I would suggest that the drum was slung when they charged.you could ask the same of the russian dragoons who at poltava seemed to have been used as cavalry rather than the traditional dragoon role.

Just had a check of lars eric hoglunds the great northern war 1700-1721.he mentions that both taubes and duckers dragoons the drummers had silver hat lace .also the bremiska dragoonsdrummers had the same uniforms as oboists.may be tacitus can confirm the above information.

Would love to see swedish dragoon standards produced as well. Would also be good if we had a swedish dragoon command pack as well.

The cd is now available from baccus miniatures.ordered my copy today.

Just my opinion but i won,t class king james foot guard as an elite unit.
