Primarily the Austrian army. I know the basics of the uniforms but I'm after regimental distinctions particularly for the Austrian Cavalry. |

Nigel Smith did a two volume set which would cover what you seek. Should be available from On Military Matters or perhaps Helion. |

Now Austrian high command -what sort of hats? |

Fluffy no doubt … with lots of feathers and gay abandon. |

Damn it -I was hoping for the shako type thing as I've got quite a few command figures in that. Irregular and Battle Honors do a figure -anyone else?? Actually as it's the Austrians I could dispense with higher command ha ha ha |

Awesome – thanks all! Not many command figs needed for Austrians – as I understand it there were no divisional commanders only Brigade and corps? |

Right, 4 infantry brigades per corps with no divisions. Although most brigade CO's could be counted on to attack without orders… What scale figures you plan on using? |
