Fresh Austrian units, 6th Blankenstein Hussars.


CHARGE!


WIth the other Hussars and Chevauxlegers, it takes my light cavalry division up to three units.


Soon to be in action (I hope).


To be split up into detachments, Grenz


These might grow into a full unit too.


Skirmish line


Austrian skirmishers to be attached to line units, hence the different cuffs.


Hopefully hold back the French for a while?


Austrian line fillers, to bulk my units up to the equivalent of five base widths for Soldiers of Napoleon, which appears to be my club standard width.


Just to show how much one mounted officer can bulk the unit out.


Almost three ranks


Back view, now I just need to do three more Austrian units and three Hungarian units, need to order two more packs... LEEEEOOON!


Here they are en situ so you can see how they work.

After a game of Soldiers of Napoleon using my Austrians, I decided that I do really need to put them on the same sized bases as my French and Prussians, as well as my clubmates bases.
First six units


My usual view


This many spare bases, I might need some command figures to make these into extra units.


That's at least two extra units there


Two more infantry unkits and the artillery next, eventually...

Hungarian infantry units, another unit of Austrian line, and the short unit at the rear is the Grenz, rebased.


Single bases are the 'spares'


Just waiting for more flock before I post pictures of the rebased artillery, of which 8/12 are completed.
