Morning Leon
working on a potential order for my Austrians and wondered if you could clarify a few things in the online listings? Here we go!
1. NPA1 German Fusiliers, NPA5 Hungarian Fusiliers and NPA9 Jagers - do these packs come with command figures?
2. NMA13 Dragoons and NMA15 Cuirassiers - do these packs come with command figures AND are the figures from the old range comparable to the new range?
3. Foot and Horse Artillery and Hussars- I think the current suggestion is that these will be available in June. Is that still the case?
Cheers
Nosher ;)
4. How well does the Polish 1812 range compare with the 1809 ranges or are they due a revamp too?
5. I would only need two possibly three packs of Polish at most. Do their packs come with command figures or can I simply ask for the relevant command to be included in my order (i.e 2x Drummer, 2x standard, 2x Officer?)
Forget the 1812 Polish figures, Leon put a photo up a while back which shows they are just French with headswaps so the uniform is all wrong, same with the Wurts.
Found the relevant thread;

side by side comparison with the new range too.
Quote1. NPA1 German Fusiliers, NPA5 Hungarian Fusiliers and NPA9 Jagers - do these packs come with command figures?
The Fusiliers have separate command codes (NPA3 and 7), the Jagers come with an officer and bugler:

These do contain command, 1 each of officer / standard / musician, and they are a pretty good match for the new range sizewise. The new cavalry won't be far away though if I can get the moulds done.
Quote3. Foot and Horse Artillery and Hussars- I think the current suggestion is that these will be available in June. Is that still the case?
Roughly, yep, but as above, if I can get the moulds done, then they'll appear sooner.
Quote4. How well does the Polish 1812 range compare with the 1809 ranges or are they due a revamp too?
The plan is to revamp all of the Naps with new stuff, so the 1812 will be getting an overhaul at some point down the line. I couldn't tell you when though, as there's a lot to get through!
Quote5. I would only need two possibly three packs of Polish at most. Do their packs come with command figures or can I simply ask for the relevant command to be included in my order (i.e 2x Drummer, 2x standard, 2x Officer?)
The command comes separately, but it's no bother to just supply the exact quantities you need.
Let me know if there's anything else I can help with.

one more (probably dense) question... :-[
How many poses per pack in NPA4 & NPA8 Austrian Mounted Command? Fingers crossed its more than 1 pose per pack :)

Just the one pose unfortunately! You could always mix in some of the other mounted officer types from elsewhere, the Nap French and 1812 range have got some suitable figures, plus you could also use stuff from the 1860's or Schleswig range.
