Pete, you may struggle to use them any where other than the Pyrenees in the depths of winter, I suspect these are very specifically for the retreat from Moscow 1812/13, and if Strelets get them right a sure fire winner, Paul Britten Austin wrote a trilogy ,1812,the largest volume of which covers the period of the retreat,very detailed and graphic.No sets on Strelets future sets has got my fingers crossed as much as these two,What the grande armee looked like on that retreat is well documented,I am not expecting smart well groomed soldier like Frenchmen
the sledges were "found" (stolen from) in Russian villages so there was no standard design. I would presume the single horse (or reindeer) powered sledge would cover a wide period of time and be good for many settings. Yes OK - including Santa Claus and Christmas.
Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
