To get started I painted up a small group of 12 Jagers. Inspired by reading Captain Ewalt's journal years ago I find that Jagers are ubiquitous and turn up in almost every battle. So they will be super useful troops. Their plain uniforms were easy to paint and I did these in a couple of days. I am experimenting with different basing for skirmish type troops. Single based figures just do not look right to me. So now I am trying a longish thin base to look like a skirmish line. After a couple games we will see. Figures are from Minden miniatures and although from the Seven Years War period will not look out of place on my American Revolution battlefields. link |

Very nice but I wouldn't call those bases thin. You are right that there seems to be some Jaegers at every battle. |

That's a handsome unit! I particularly like the musician with the hunting horn. |
