Decided to buy another 5 sets of the Hat Carabiniers in the latest dark blue of the recent restock to (re)make my 2 guard Chasseur bats.
Will use the turquoise Hat Carabinier figures formerly used for these Bats somewhere in the similarly colored Army of Italy. And to spur further improvements to my Army of Italy, which includes 2 bats made from Hat Elites in greatcoats, I also bought 3 boxes of the recent restock of this set (which I hope is in the same turquoise as my existing Longcoat figures, or I have a new problem). Perhaps I will use these as part of a build out of Broussier’s Div (which until now I have not done because I reassigned it to the French right as emergency reserves to counter Johann’s army approaching from Unter Siebenbrunn). We shall see what opertunities this creates.
As for the Austrians; after assembling all the I Korps Fusilier Bats/Regiments I kinda lost some steam (as I Korps alone has about 1,800 figures). Still need to assemble all the German Fusilier units in III, V & VI Korps. I have purchased them, just not put together the figures or units yet; Although I have assembled & organized all the command figures for each of these battalions.
Cheers!
