Hi Guys,

you can find in the file section of Russian Civil war Yahoo groups a translation of the titles of
http://kolchakiya.narod.ru/uniformology_main.htm

You will find it in the  'Translation' folder.

Hope that help you.

Cheers

Hunlion

Hi Hunlion
Thanks! I have already translated just about all of those pages (well the ones I am interested in painting anyway) with Google Chrome.

Thanks for these links it is very interesting (I can read the Russian alphabet and I understand a few words but not many).

I was only looking for a few infos to paint a few soldiers but I am suprised with all these.

Bonjour Patrice!
I have a lot more links on Siberia - Most are thanks to Michael (Cuprum on the Forum). I posted most of them in the "Useful Links" Sticky folder (at the bottom of the page) http://leadadventureforum.com/index.php?topic=6920.0

Hope these help,

Thanks Sepoy  :)

I was only looking for some infantry regiment who would have been active in the Far East and have nice shoulder boards in any other coulour than red (as I want to recognize reds from tsarists at first sight in skirmish fighthing, so any miniature with any red sign on him will be bolshevik).

I'll look more closely at all these links, there is no hurry I still have many other figs to paint before these RCW ones.

No problem! Try these - bright blue shoulder boards;
Uniforms the 15 th Votkinsk and Izhevsk rifle divisions (1919); Izhevsk-Votkinsk Brigade Far Eastern Army (1920-1922)

Excellent !  :)

And since a long time I have been too lazy to try to read any texts in Russian, this will encourage me to work on it again.

Mais oui..but if you use Google Chrome Browser it will translate the page automatically from Russian to Francais for you. Enjoy!  There are also some units with Black, white, yellow, or green shoulder boards as well, but it seems most were Red-ish Raspbery.
