40mm - Boritzy Freikorps

The Boritzy Freikorps is to be deployed in the southern border regions to contain and confound cross border incursions by Saxe-Jarlsberg.

Below is Count Konrad Boritzy, whose freikorps is currently being raised (40mm Irregular Miniatures Hussar on a Creartec horse).

The uniforms of the Boritzy Freikorps:

There will be a battalion (~30figs) of each of the Chasseurs, Grenadiers and Jagers; the Uhlans will be a regiment of 2 squadrons (~20 figs). All units to be comprised of 40mm figures.

    Wow, that will be a lot of 40mm lead . . . and should look very impressive indeed.

    Jeff,

    your right, there is a pile of figs builidng up to paint; the cavalry are particurly heavy in weight - there's a lot of lead in the horses

    A colorful unit, providing an interesting and flexible combination of troop types (not a single 2 - 4 pder planned as Corps artillery?).

    Your uniforms are generally derivated from historical ones: is it the case here?

    Some artillery will be attached to the Freikorps, manned by regulars -I currently have one gun model and crew.

    The uniforms of the Freikorps are purely ficticious; with a light blue facing theme.
