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.

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.
