Question in the topic line, does anyone make them?

dbf167629 Nov 2022 4:18 p.m. PST

Boki makes them. They call them 15mm but I think they are supposed to be compatible with AB. link

I saw them. In bicornes? Didn't Surorov's men have an unusual sort of headgear ?

no bicornes, apart from the cossacks, now they do have assorted headgear

Under Suvorov was regular Russian infantry. What unusual sort of headgear?

nnascati Supporting Member of TMP29 Nov 2022 5:48 p.m. PST

Sho Boki, hard to describe, but I believe it was something like a Tarelton helmet.

Sho Boki Sponsoring Member of TMP29 Nov 2022 6:13 p.m. PST

This kind of helmet was wear in wars against Ottomans.
And uniform was also different. I will do such uniforms also on some day.
But in Italy there were all new Prussian style uniforms.

I think the 'unusual headgear' comment comes from a confusion between Suvorov and Potemkin.

Yeah, only two companies make 15mm with Potemkin. One is out of business (Falcon) and the other is in Poland with limited selection.

Example of Falcon:
