Not a silly question... there were strong reasons..

1. Everybody starts ranges with infantry and often run out of steam before getting to the cavalry. There are currently plenty of Swedish infantry available but the cavalry selections are less appealing.

2. Cavalry were such a prominent part of the Swedish war machine


3. This was a test sculpt only to create 'feel' for what needs to be done next. It does not restrict release/development schedules

4. We were at the time doing other cavalry so it created minimum disruption to continuity.

There is a Swede on the same page as the dragoons on foot... Barry's Link-Fu has betrayed him...

That would be illegal until there's a change in the Chief Secretary to the Treasury:

Barry, are the Swedish cavalry usable for anybody else's horse in the period, or are they Sweden specific?
