Nice to see some progress – as for the queues I would opt for the long one, as to the other questions, I don't know, in case nobody comes up with an answer, difficult to decide.

I hope there is also progress in other topics, command miniatures for Austrians and French, as well as French infantry in overals, all desperately needed.

I got a picture of Piedmont Grenadiers in battle (thanks, J.Luis!) with British style (but dark brown instead of blue) rounded wooden canteen. So majority of troop will get that.

I think that I will not sculpt the canteen belt in front of troops.
This will ruin all frontal view of troops.

Also I noticed that Eureka did Grenadier's Flagbearers.
Did the Grenadiers have Flags? There were only converged Grenadiers consisted with Füsilier regiments Grenadier companies.

I totally agree.

Did the Grenadiers have Flags? There were only converged Grenadiers consisted with Füsilier regiments Grenadier companies.

Some sources mention one independent grenadier unit, the Royal Grenadiers (Granatieri Reali), but I cannot confirm whether they carried a flag or not.

Most wargamers like to include grenadier flagbearers into their grenadier battalions even though it is historically questionable or inaccurate.

Fusiliers and Grenadiers are moulded and casted.
Now I have to write the selling page.
And then continue with Command.
