French flags 1796

I have some old Heritage (I think) French infantry in bicorns. I decided to order some Essex command figures for them. While waiting for them to cross the pond, I thought I'd ask here; did the French in 1796 sport tricolors or were they using the earlier flags. I can get paper flags of 1795 vintage for them.

GMB makes revolutionary flags for this period.  They have the tricolor but are diamond shaped.  I really like them

Sigh. Not in 15mm.

Guess I'll use the 1795 flags - they should be close. As far as I can see they didn't go to a straight tricolor in '76.

On closer inspection, Maverick makes 15mm flags for 1794. Close enough.
