Re: Question to Strelets re 1wk Cavalry

I really hope that Strelets will let us have this announced sets. Also the field camps WWII and General Staff. Regretably since 2 years Strelets is going to make only mass production. The quality and the themes are not so great like in the former days - eg. Mini French in Advance - picture is piece of art but the figures are nearly Honkong quality -or the Dacians. And last but not least your latest Cav. -Sets- je regret mais the riders do not fit very well to their horses. What shall I do with this? For the future we got 3 new Brit. Crime War in Mini format and Roman Auxiliares in advance and before battle. I like this sets but I really would prefer if you do Franco-Prussian war or ACW or German brother war. And ok for your first WW2 set but we will get 4 new superb WWII Soviet sets form Pegasus this year and one from Zvezda. I be a fan of Strelets but please understand my constructive critic. I be sure that Strelets can do much more like in the past -also great artilleries and opening great new epoches!!! (((what about a Napoleonic Austiran cavalry serie- Dragons, Uhlans, Cuirassiers, Hussars)))

and meanwhile this thread is about first world war cavalry british and austro hungarian.

Re: Question to Strelets re 1wk Cavalry

Here is a helpful suggestion -- if you ever release the Honved set, make them wear early WWI uniforms, rather than the late war uniform. And go ahead and throw in sets of *** Dragoons and Uhlans while you are at it. The Austro-Hungarian cavalry fought mounted actions against the Russians as much or more than the Germans did, and it would be nice to have figures that represent these soldiers in 1/72 plastic. On the other hand, by 1916 most Austro-Hungarian cavalry (Honved or otherwise) served dismounted, so there would be little use for such a set on horses.

Re: Question to Strelets re 1wk Cavalry

thats not helpful suggestion. masters for honved are already made.

FYI British cavalry for Cambrai 1917

It looks like you could use Strelets' Bengal Lancers for this battle, since they fought there as well(Hodson's horse):
