Was it sent out for 'blind playtesting' and feedback this time?

Indeed! No hobby for poor men or the skint!

A seriously tasty unit, von Peter, very well painted, based, and 'flagged'!

"Schomberg's Hores" or "Schomberg's Hoes"?

I completely agree, Barry. I took one look at them and knew they would never share a tabletop with my Perry-sculpted Russians.

Good effort, Rob, however the Funken's work contain numerous errors when it comes to the Russians (though it was the best we had in the 1970's). Jonathan, if you're willing to invest the time, there is no substitute for reading A.V. Viskovatov's seminal work, as translated by Mark Conrad and availab...

Hi Günter, For 1812 and later, two colours per battalion of regular 'Infantry' (e.g., Musketeers & Grenadiers): 1st battalion gets one 'white' flag and a 'coloured' flag, the 2nd & 3rd battalions carry two 'coloured' flags.

I've head-swapped eight shako-wearing heads for the default shapkas that come with the 8-variants of Perry-sculpted Foundry 28mm figures. Thus the 'org...

Colourfull chaps, all of them, Jim! The mortar crew even have a hint of 'piratical swagger' about them.

You have it exactly right, Günter; glad to have been of service.

Hi Günter, It depends which specific period we are concerned with, and the 'unit size' you're referring to, however for the post-1810 period, Mark Conrad's translation of Viskovatov ( http://marksrussianmilitaryhistory.info/Visk10A-Restore.htm#1 ) summarizes as follows, which may help, particularly ...

Happy Christmas to everyone, and best wishes for health & prosperity in the New Year!

Superb! I think they capture the swagger and panache of the Revolutionary period generals very well indeed!

A lovely unit all together, Jim--well done!
