Regarding marching columns on the road:

In the real world, if you're walking from Paris to Moscow, carrying a drill manual on your shoulder, how long before you swap shoulders?

A bigger issue for me is the fact these are wearing greatcoats. Maybe they're hiding a Bardin uniform under that greatcoat; I don't think French troops in Bardin uniform are oversupplied.

I think giving Napoleon units of SAS and LRDG would be a bit of an unfair advantage. But what the heck if Strelets made them I'd buy them, and I'm sure there's vehicles out there somewhere.

Graeme , strangely enough I had not thought of putting them on a table alongside the little corporal :joy: however if they came in blue plastic with Napoleon as a bonus figure I would still buy them too:relaxed:

They're wearing fusilier pompoms and greatcoats, but they've got the crossbelts and swords of elites. Better to clear up the confusion now or face the same problem as the earlier set of "French Infantry on the March".
