Dutch/Belgian/Germans at Waterloo

Post by Peter McCarroll » Tue Oct 07, 2008 7:44 am

I am starting to put together a Dutch/Belgian/German force for the Waterloo Campaign.

I have a couple of questions that I cannot find the answer to in any of my refernce books.

1. The colour of Dutch/Belgian artillery pieces.

2. Uniform details of the Nassau Landwehr Battalion that fought with the 1st Nassau Infantry Regiment.

Can anyone help?

Peter, hopefully you'll get these painted up for the game on the 19th and with matt varnish :lol:

Unfortunately I get the uniform link to open up, every time I try I get a pop up blocked message, despite allowing pop ups :x

Cheers

Alas, I have yet to send my Nassau order off to the Perries.

However, I am working on the Dutch 4th Dragoons which should be ready for 19th.

Peter, you should be able to pick the figures up at the Forfar show this Saturday as I'm sure Dave Thomas is going to be there. Unfortunately I'm not, thanks to me getting my dates mixed up and my wife making other arrangements.

Cheers
Dave
