Given the lack of armour, wouldn't they just be described as "harquebusiers"? They certainly aren't cuirassiers, not for this period at least. |

Actually they are spot on for Imperial Cuirassiers in the period which they are designed for which is the 1657-1660 intervention in the Swedish-Polish war which saw Imperial troops campaign in Poland, Denmark and Swedish Pommerania. |

Fair enough; I was thinking of the heyday of the fully armoured panz….errrr…cuirassier from the TYW. |
