Prussia

The project of rebasing and refurbishing the Seven Years War collection is nearly complete.  There remain 25 elements of cavalry, these are slowly being parcelled out to various armies, but this is not an urgent issue. Looking back at the enormity of the project, I am greatly relieved to see its end. The variant rules (see link) are done and the tests have proven satisfactory, the final step now are the scenarios. 

But for now, the Prussians

Musketeer regiments.

A second battalion has been added to a number of regiments, seen in the photo are Winterfeld infantry, 2 battalions, Braunschweig-Bevern, 1 battalion and Itzenplitz, 1 battalion.

Second photo, Lehwaldt infantry, 2 battalions, Forcade infantry, 2 battalions and Kalckstein, 1 battalion.
