Principality of Munsterkasse - regiment inspection

With Saxe-Jarslberg involved in the border wars with Wittenberg, they have been unable to supply troops according to their nominal treaty obligations to Monrovia. So the the Monrovians have requested one of their other allies the Principality of Munsterkasse to make up the numbers.  Below you can see the infantry regiment raised from the towns of Edamme and Goudarre, they seem to have not coordinated their purchasing of headgear.

Looking 'Archetypal North-Germanic', and thus very business-like and impressive!

And the difference in headgear lends a suitable air of "mashed togetherness" to the contingent.

Certainly a worthy opponent for anyone who might dare to take the field against them. The RSMs and Old Glorys seem to go well together. Nice looking unit. - Mike (St. Maurice)

Agreed! Very nice looking unit you have there. Hard to go wrong with RSMs.

Best Regards,

They look good. The difference in headgear will make it easier to tell the 2 contingents apart if need be.

Splendid troops indeed!

May I ask where you get the pictures for your marvellous backdrops: I envy you these even more than I do your troops!

Handsome lads indeed! I have been gradually replacing my Old Glory Beerstein army with RSM. Thanks for sharing...

Regiments involved in the Monrovia - Wittenberg struggle generally follow historical precedents, uniforms-wise: what about this one?

Die alte Aechzener - backscene in use on this picture is from model railway supplier named Peco (Country Landscape Medium, code SK32). Also worth looking at are those made my Busch, Vollmer and Faller.

abdul666 - the uniform for these boys are based on the blue coated battalion of the Hanoverian Legion Brittanique; with a few divergences.

I thank you immensely (my wallet may have other opinions!)
