My mystery unit revealed. TMP user 'The Man with two Bryans' (a name after my own heart even if it is spelled wrong) got it right but was not sure of the exact unit name. Close enough. He wins a cookie. The Beunos Aries battalion was raised from Spanish POWs from Argentina taken after the fall of Montevideo. Outfitted in British kit they had a short life in the Army of Galicia before being wiped out at Medina del Rioseco. link If you wonder how Perry and Victrix plastic pieces fit together have a closer look at these guys.
Cheers Brian

That was my second guess. A great looking unit. |
