umm…what are the Potemkin Wars for those not in the know?

The wars conducted by the Russian Prince Potemkin and probably including wars where the Russian Potemkin uniform was worn by wargamers.

Essentillay the Wars of Catherine the Great( 2 Ottoman, 1 Swedish, 2 Polish) plus perhaps the early part of the reign of Paul ? (Russian particiaption i nthe War of the Second Coalition).

If you follow the link in the original posting, the range is subtitled "The Russo-Swedish War 1788-1790", and includes Russian and Swedish troops.

Certainly are unique uniforms!

plus perhaps the early part of the reign of Paul

No. Paul hated everything his mother had done and promptly ordered the army into Prussian-style uniforms AND completely changed the individual unit organizations.
