Title: French Alpine Troops
Post by: cgh on February 05, 2014, 07:16:31 PM

Would the warlord Belgium chasseurs do for these or are they just too far out?  I've not seen a decent picture of Battle Honors ones and the postage from the USA is a killer.

Thanks

The Belgium ones can work in a pinch, the kit and uniform cut is slightly different from what I understand.

As for good images...here are my Battle Honors Alpine Chaussers.

Overall, they are pretty good for their quality....Warweb has them at a good price also, $13 for a pack I think...

I'd take them belgians anytime
Brigade also has one WW1 pack
problem is, You probably need them with anoraks

if there are any with useable rifles, I'd take these with Woodbine chasseur heads
