Eureka do some 28mm Saxon chevaulegers (including horseholders) which would work very well. At least these are what I plan to use. link |

Thanks for both tips. Any handy guide to organization in America? Mix of foot and mounted jaegers? I will probably do that for skirmish games in any case, but wonder what is known. Only source I found said upwards of 1000 jaegers were theoretically hired for American service, but actual strength was probably half that? Wonder what % of that were mounted? |

Ewald's diary, full text, is available online. Appsrently it was a regular practice to attach Hessian grenadiers, serving as light infantry, to the jaegers, to provide the riflemen with bayonet protection. |
