"With a flurry of 1809 games last year and a hankering to do the Battle of La Souffel 1815 and some 1814 battles, I had a sudden urge to paint some more Württemberg troops. Thanks to painting Von Hügel's brigade at 1:20 ratio for the AB Figures Eggmühl mega-game in 1999, I already had FAR more light infantry, artillery and jäger in my collection than I could ever possibly use in Napoleon's Battles (and that's despite having already given half of them away!). I posted them on here a few years ago. However, my Württemberg army was sorely lacking in generals, cavalry and line infantry, especially for those later battles on the Allied side, so needed some balancing.
There are some quite significant uniform changes through the period, so I decided to peg them to the uniforms they were wearing in 1812, as that's when I anticipate that I might get the most mileage out of them. However, my uniform sources very pretty limited, so I was heavily reliant upon internet sources… And we all know where that leads…
And yes, I know they were wearing shakos from 1813 onward, but a. I already have helmet-wearing Württemberg line infantry, b. AB don't do the shako-wearing figures (though Tony says that they are on the way) and c. I have no shame… I generally don't buy armies covering all the uniform-changes throughout the war unless they're radically different (e.g. 1806 & 1813 Prussians or early and late French Carabiniers)…"
