This new unit officially received the designation ‘Linien-Infanterie Regiment Nr 4 and the two battalions remaining in Germany were retitled the Linien-Infanterie-Regiment Nr 3. from Copyright © W J Rawkins 2013.<br />I thought it might clarify the mystery of the two colored regiment.BasilBarflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12646287591068789393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9170582445870210697.post-18884234563797928222013-08-26T18:54:40.759-04:002013-08-26T18:54:40.759-04:00I enjoyed looking at your own Badeners!

As I mentioned in the post, I found it challenging to find easily accessible information on this army, especially for 1809. It Looks like I will have to draft some 1809 Bavarians for the Baden Light Dragoons and Artillery, as no one I know makes specific 25/28mm figures for Baden for them.Gonsalvohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16531623280789478092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9170582445870210697.post-77486682608718433662013-08-26T10:34:58.363-04:002013-08-26T10:34:58.363-04:00Thanks for your excellent information.

Smaller size than the Bavarians, but with the neat headgear. Hope yours perform to satifaction. My small 1812 collection has held their end of the tabletop actions.<br /><br />Cheers WRAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
