Thank you very much !

Wonderful sources, maps and other material...

Need more time to research all this information.

:astonished: :heart_eyes:

Brilliant links/sources many thanks, rec'd new Cuirassiers on Saturday, so many possibilities for conversions , painting etc the Austrian Mounted Drummer is an amazing sculpt, many congrats to sculptor, can't recall any maker in plastic or metal has done this figure before
Looking at figures another possible use is German Reiters in Polish/Lithuanian service for Vienna 1683
Figures for Schellenberg (ok lousy spelling) Black Watch Miniatures in Germany do a set of mounted and dismounted Horse Grenadiers (in metal) for this battle

again well done to Strelets and team

Thanks for the links! I actually had the pdf (by Snorrason/Henriksen) for some time but had all but forgotten about the 1st Jyske! Thanks for the reminder! It's an excellent study, I really should re-read it carefully before painting some Danes!


As for the kettle-drummers, I like them a lot! Take a look here:

Ummmh, just checked again, and yes while the 1st Jyske may actually have had helmets, they did not take part in the WoSS ... could be used for a fictional wargame though or the GNW.

True as you say, but as i'm first and foremost a wargamer, if figures look good i'll use them, when first got interested in WSS/GNW period the only figures available were in metal, like Les Higgins, Alberken, Douglas Miniatures, Warrior, Minifigs S range etc but since Strelets and a couple of other makers began producing plastic figures for WSS/GNW , my armies have skyrocketed in numbers :grinning:

another possible use of the cuirassiers see
The Last Ironsides English Expedition to Portugal 1662-1668 by Jonathan Riley published by Helion in UK

Sigh, I wish someone had produced Ironsides in this quality 20 or 30 years ago. Never materialized. So I sold all my 30years cavalry and switched to 28mm for this period. You can't have everything I guess ...
