Yep. I painted up the cavalry and the light infantry for this army and a number of the others, and standard bearers with the appropriate flags, all to be used with generic dark blue-jacketed infantry in kepis. Works for Holland,, Belgium, Switzerland, Greece … For some armies the book also gives additional detail such as types of rifle or cannon, comments on the worth or otherwise of troops or armies, strengths and weaknesses and other miscellanea.
