New 28mm Napoeonic range, Victorious miniatures

[Keith T]

These look really good and it is highly likely I will buy some in the next 24 hrs.

However, can you tell us which hat styles are appropriate to which regiments?

At the start of the war in 1793 most regular units had the Bicorn, the Guards may have had the new round hat as did many of the home militia units and the newly raised regiments.

There are few records showing which hat regiments were issued with at this time, Militia units in the UK supplied drafts of men to fill up line regiments, as often the men had to buy their own kit they were better equipped than the regular soldiers.
 It is also possible you could have had a mixture of head gear within the same unit.

 Hope that helps.

The figures look very nice, would be great for doing Abercromby in the West Indies
