The start of a new army, this time a Prussian army for the Seven Years War. The intention is to build infantry battalions of 18 figures in the 3 stand format, and cavalry squadrons of 6 figures. This should enable a good number of units to fit the available gaming area. The base sizes are smaller than I'm using for my WSS collection and are 50mm x 50mm.
The first unit painted is IR Regiment 18, Prinz von Preußen, the figures are 28mm Front Rank Figurines and the flags are from GMB Designs.
They served in a number of engagements during the course of the war, of most interest to me is the Battle of Zorndorf (1758) as my wargaming opponent is building a Russian army.
