Apologies if this topic has been posted before but I really need some help.

I have a large amount of Renegade WW1 Austrian infantry but no machine guns, artillery or officers to go with them. I would like to know if anyone could recommend anything. In keeping with the early war uniforms I would ideally like to go for the Austrians in caps and not the helmets.

Also anyone make Austrian cavalry for this period?

Many thanks

The Honorable Lead Boil Suit Company makes(or made) them.

You might also want to check Battle Honors/19th Cent Miniatures, however I would expect them to be smaller than Renegade, but I don't know for sure.

Didn't Rommel lead Austrians in the first World War? A few German officers in caps may be OK. Check the Pulp figure line for characters in Austrian/German uniforms, usually portrayed as "bad guys" though I don't know why grin

But, really, you can't go wrong with Brigade's Austrians. Lovely figures. (Far better than Renegade, IMHO)

Models in caps

Commissioner mentioned AH001 which will give you command- thank you.

There is also an HMG firing indirect AH0011 and a HMG been carried pack AH008. Some models marching in pack AH009 also have caps.

On our forum you will also see some folk who have been busy doing head swaps!

Hope that helps.

Id second Scarab, they are about as close a match to Renegade in size as you can get.
