Hi I'm starting a interest in Napoleonics and will probably be doing battles centered around the Sharpe books. But for plastics what do I use for the light companies? I see the box sets for flank and center compaines but what about the light company. |

The light company IS a flank company. |

Oh, ok did not know that I thought it was Light center and then flank companies, Ok thanks, so now I'll start looking at Perry, Victrix and who ever else has 28mm Plastics. Thanks. |

Or more correctly, Grenadier company on the right, eight center companies and the light company on the left or deployed as skirmishers. |

If you are doing the Peninsular War period, with the Bitish in stovepipe shakos, the light company probably had the same front shako plate as the rest of the battalions. Shoulder wings for both flank companies, a white hackle for grenadiers, and green for light company. GdeP |
