AWI Hitlist UPDATED :

Definite :

1. American Commands - Yes more being considered
2. French Commands - Yes, dollies in progress
3. Mounted Tarleton - Yes, but some work on horses needed first; applies to all mounted
4. dismounted Tarleton - Yes
5. Continental Dragoons - Yes
6. Guards in Southern Campaign uniform  - Yes dollies in progress
7. Guards Command in Southern Campaign uniform
8. Light Bobs in campaign dress skirmishing - Yes
9. British dragoons command (including trumpeter)
10. American dragoons command, or to include commands in dragoon pack - Both 9 and 10 are definites, but depend on the horses being fixed up. I hope to cover most types of dragoon helmet for the americans.
11. Hessian Generals - some work on horses needed first; applies to all mounted
12. Queens Rangers Command - Yes


Possible :

1. Mounted Militia / Riflemen.
2. Continental Specialities (like the Perry ones )
3. British Specialities (as above).
4. Indians / Specialities  - Indians;maybe some shirted ones eventually

These are bonus packs to me, i.e. they may get done after the main packs get done, but at the moment there are more essentials to add that take priority, 1-9 above for example


NEW TO LIST :

1. Horses for limbers / waggons
2. civilian pack
3. Pioneers
4. Farmhands
5. Militia running away - 2-4 are bonus packs as discussed above
6. Highlanders Firing Line - see 8
7. Highlanders Charging - see 8
8. Highlanders Skirmishing -Maybe.
9. 12-pdr - You'l have to ask the boss as I can't do guns.
10. American light infantry ( early ) -    Not sure what these are exactly? Like AWA3 in firing positions?
11. Walking wounded and shot figures for padding out the lines - maybe after more essentials
12. French 24pdr siege gun - see 9
13. Swedish 4 pdr - see 9
14. Hessian / Brunswick Gun crews

Not by Clininarium ( Pester Dave / Leon):

1. Continental Limbers.
2. British Limbers.
3. Ammunition Waggons.
4. Covered Waggons.
5. Continental Dragrope teams.
6. British Dragrope teams

[General Bt Sherman]

The list seems pretty good to me. I need to check my Uniform books and see if anything important is missing. Has there been any talk about doing personalities (ex. Washington)?

[DaveH]

Looks like we could have nearly everything by year end then.

Surely civilians/farmhands could be generic for 18th Century - same with wagons/limber horses?

[Dazza]

Clib ?

any news on :

Queens Rangers Command
&
Mounted ( which will please IanS    )


Hopefully not too far away, would love the QR command as that will finish off the unit.

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

Nothin plezes moi. 

MORE TANKS - POST WAR TANKS 

[17-21l]

Not a great historian on the AWI but the British light Dragoon Regt's were mounted. The 16th were sent back to England and left what horses they had left to the 17th LDs who had recently deployed to the colonies. The Regimental journal mentions that quite a few 16th dragoons were left to bolster up the 17th. Im an ex 17/21L and Queens Royal Lancer (man and boy) and both Regiments (16th & 17th Lancers) now form QRL. Hope this helps, like I said im no historian .. but can remember reading it, so the horse holders would/could be a go-er. 
Anycase where's the new Napoleonic British
