So every oob i have seen on Waterloo campaign has Dutch militia and not Belgian. All Baccus has is Belgian militia.Is this supposed to be the same thing? |

All the militia was "Dutch" of the Dutch-Belgian contingent. link Not being a 6mm guy any longer, though if I was to start again I would use the incorrect marked NDB05 Belgian Militia: link for the Dutch Militia" |

Having painted at least a dozen battalions of them and think they were just wonderful figures to paint, my recollection is they were simply referred to as "National Militia Battalions" and were numbered up to at least 18. |

The Beauty of 6mm is that you can get away with a whole host of uniform sins. The shako shape is perhaps the most important aspect here, remember when playing your figures will be at least 3 feet away from your eyes hence no need to squint at the epaulettes, belt buckles and lacing. |
