These are the last of the Cazadores to be added to my expanded Portuguese forces.
These fellows are from the 6th Battalion, and have yellow collars and cuffs, piped black. The figures are from Brigade Games.
I made one omission on these troops, since corrected; they should have a bras plate on the black crossbelts on the chest.
The 6th was based in Minho province, and quartered in Penafiel.
With 24 Line Infantry units of 2 battalions, and 12 battalions of Cazadores, the Cazadores numbered roughly 1/5 of the Portuguese infantry.
Good looking Cacadores, Peter! If these are the last Cacadores, how many other battalions have mustered out before?
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jon. One unit of original Minifigs Cazadores, 3 new units this year, and The LLL should probably included as well, because they were absorbed into the Cazadores (and formed the cadres for several of the newly formed units) in 1811.
DeleteVery nice indeed, great work on them, really nice miniatures as well. Your Portuguese army is certainly taking great shape.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Donnie. Probably time for a Parade in April... after the two remaining units are completed.
DeleteLovely work again Peter. I too was wondering what the final total of Cacadore units completed is now.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lawrence; 4-5 as noted above!
DeleteAnother fine addition to your Portuguese army, Peter!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Keith. They stand ready to support their British Allies.
DeleteLast but not least, very nicely done.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Joe!
DeleteThose will stand out nicely on table
ReplyDeleteThank you Gary;' with their brown and brown dominating, they may just camouflage themselves!
DeleteFine looking troops there Peter:)!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Steve!
DeleteMore great Cacadores, nice work Peter!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Mark. I am in the winding down phase of Project Portugal!
DeleteHandsome looking unit Peter.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Richard!
