3 (of 4) Battalions of French IV Corps

Unfortunately in bag formation at the moment, but hope to get formation pictures in next few days.


From left; 

1st row: Cav

2nd row: Legrand Division 

3rd row: Saint-Cyr Division

4th row: Molitor Division




Not pictured: Boudet Division (upstate) 


1st & 2nd Saxon Divisions of IX Corp

Both fully-Saxon divisions of IX Corps pictured now.

2nd division is as pictured earlier and on the right (as viewed from their perspective).  

1st division Zeschwitz is on their left, with Egidy Schutzen screening for the 3 battalions of the second brigade Zeschau.  In reserve behind them is the Leib Grenadier garde (red) and Bose Grenadier battalion.








Not pictured (lack of space); 3rd Division Dupas, which was mostly French, but included 1 Battalion of Saxon Grenadiers & 1 of Saxon Schutzen.

Saxon musketeer inventory laid out by pose

Doing inventory in prep for reorganization of my 9 battalions of Saxon musketeers.


OOB for each battalion is about 66 enlisted plus about 6 command (flag, 2 drummers, 2 NCO & officer).

More pics to come.

Tease of new unit pics

 2 Austrian infantry battalions with much more to come very soon!

Saxon IX Corps (in bag formation)

Here is the IX Corps laid out in bags, starting on the left with the Cav, and then the infantry by division; 1st infantry division on the left, then 2nd & 3rd (Dupas) division.



Again; I’ll post more interesting formation pictures soon.  This just gives an idea of the scale of figures involved (and the task of storing them).

Cheers

Reunited with most of my collection; now to organize...

I’m back in my city apartment and reunited with most of my collection for first time since November.

Been organizing and cataloging everything and plan to post some more interesting pictures, but wanted to post this to demonstrate the scale of that task (and this is hardly the entire collection).

Cheers
