BUT IT IS TWO DIFFERENT ARMIES.

They just HAPPEN to have the same name...

So by your own admission you have Two huge Prussian army size holes in your collection. More reason to buy them

I can't do Prussia 1806 - about a third of the total is Brunswickers, and I don't know what the uniform was; it's hinted on the web that it isn't the 1814 black.

It wasnt - adopted after the 1806 campaign - dont know when - but because their duke died inbattle, so in mourning. Prior to 1806 they used Prussian uniforms. Those 1085 Prussians you are going to buy will do fine.

If I may be of help? According to von Pivka in theArmies of the Napoleonic Wars:

"The uniform of Brunswick's troops until 1806 were entirely Prussian; in that year there were two infantry regiments in bicorns, dark blue coats, white belts, small clothes, black gaiters. The 1st Regiment 'Warmstedt' had red facings, white lace and yellow buttons. The 2nd 'Griesheim' had red facings, lapels edged in white lace having a blue worm and white buttons. Grenadiers wore fur caps with plate in the button colour and backing in the facing colour edged in the button colour."

That should be enough to be getting on with.

I refer the honourable gentlemen to the comments made by Sam Mustafa in the section of the rule book for Prussian army lists.

The options presented here are an attempt to approximate an army structure that was unfortunately not entirely rational.

The RULE WRITER shrugs his shoulders at the Prussians and walks away...

You are suggesting a lack of rationality is a limitation
