Great.

My son (13) is collecting Austrians and seeing me struggle with the French hussars was a little worried about having to make all his light cavalry hussars.  :-[
Unfortunatly I reassured him with the comment that chevaux-leger which would be easy to paint but will probably be a late arrival or not all.  :(
This will please him intensly.  :)

Plus the added bonus that they can be used as dragoons. Or do you intend to do a seperate dragoon figure? The uniform is the same cut with only a (theoretical) colour difference but I suppose you may wish to put the dragoons on a different horse?

Cheers, Rob  :)

The Dragoon and the Chevauleger will be the same figure, I've also got a note saying that they'll do for mounted Jagers as well.

Excellent. Also do for light dragoons, of course.  :-bd

I've not got any pics of them (as they're a bit difficult to photo with only one wheel, or a barrel on a sprue!), but the Austrian artillery have arrived at Pendraken HQ today!  In this batch, we've got all the infantry artillery, including:

- 3 pdr
- 6 pdr
- 12 pdr
- 7 pdr Howitzer
... and a limber!
