Figures are all AB Miniatures.
Once I add in some artillery and a few cavalry, I should be ready to conduct a small game.

1799 Suvorov in Italy - The Austrians
The third faction in the 1799 Project is that of Austria. To date, eight battalions of Austrian infantry have taken the field. All of these battalions are wearing the early casquet rather than the helmet that was introduced in the 1798 regulations. My thought is that headgear would not be replaced when the Regulations were enacted but only introduced over time as the casquets wore out. I have a few battalions worth of Austrian AB in helmet that I may add into the project.

ReplyDeletePeter, thanks! I, too, like the casquet, and the helmet, and the shako. A great looking army in multiple periods.
DeleteWhen WE are in command, the Austrians DO enjoy competent generalship, right?
SUperb Austrians Jonathan!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Paul!
DeleteI do really like this basing Scheme. Eventually all of my French and British will have to succumb as well.
ReplyDeleteGlad you like it! Since I am frequently in the single-element MU camp, this is a good solution.
DeleteWhat Rules are you using and what size are your Battalions
ReplyDeleteBattalions are 13 figures and rules are most often of my own doing.
