hi i have an OOB thanks to a previous question here, so my next questions are I hope little more specific and will lead to an army being purcased and finished.

the first question is who makes 1809 Brunswickers in 10mm? I know bend sinister do 1815 models.

second question is what are Scharfschützen, (my dodgy german makes them snipers) so how would they be different from jaeger? again which figures should be used.

cheers

Sharpshooters. They would probably be the best marksmen in the command. I don't know whether they were armed with rifles or muskets.

Jagers (or hunters) were nominally the "woodsmen" of a region who were supposed to be crack shots. They could be armed with either rifles (short-barreled) or muskets.

The GHQ offerings are for 1815, not 1809.
