Hi all, I am in the midst of painting my first army, in this case 15mm Nap Austrians but find myself mystified. The Austrian "General and two staff" set from essex contains the figures linked below. I can pick out the general but the two staff look like a hussar or fm in hussar garb as per my osprey, and the other fellow wears a cuirass. I can't find any information on staff wearing these uniforms. They usually seem to be in a relatively plain green jacket. Any help would be much appreciated! imgur.com/a/klqAy |

The hussar might be a general of Hungarian cavalry or an ADC. The cuirassier appears to be a messenger. |

Thanks for the thoughts, that certainly makes sense. Given the pack title I find that a bit misleading, perhaps I'll get my officers and staff from ab or fantassin if they don't look gigantic next to my essex figs. |
