"The continental army often used the best shots of its regiments in detached battalions of marksmen as light infantry, much like the British" Interesting. I didn't know that. Where can I find descriptions or records of this practice? Nice figures BTW. |

Major B some guy said it in the american revolution subforum plus PDF link this says that light companies were sometimes converged. Til 78 they didn't have official converged batallions of light companies tough just independent riflemen corps. Age of reason asks for light units during all the war so I've had to include something, and this solution proved colourful. Wargaming isn't always 100% historic after all. Also: the brown uniforms are from the beginning of the war, posterior units would then add blue which gives a nice variety to the army. |
