To be honest I think I may have a slight obsessive compulsive disorder, once I found the information about the line regiments I had to find the information about the rest of the army or I couldn't start the period! Surely I won't have to berate my multi ethnic Army into charging repeatedly at chassepot & needle rifles!

That makes perfect sense to me  ;) and I suspect a significant number of people here ;D

Excellent link Chris.   Another book saved into the ever growing heap...

If you (or anyone) is interested, I've put together a large Excel spreadsheet showing the lineage of all
Austro-Hungarian Regiments (1550 to 1914) using Wrede and the online Schematismus.   Just PM me.

Cheers,

Hi Phil
Yeah I would be very interested in that I have sent you a message. That's the trouble with me and historical miniatures I spend more time researching them then I do painting them!

Don't buy your daughters a pony, buy them heroin instead, its cheaper and ultimately less addictive.
